Would A Cat Do This ?

Dog rescues abandoned newborn

 

I've had to endure a few crazed cat women in the course of my sad-excuse-for-a-sex-life, but it inevitably ends when I tell them point blank that the object of their affections would happily eat them if they lapsed into a coma. Puah comes to shove, most carnivores would, but cats are opportunists.

 

In any case, I dont see too many cats protecting a newborn when they could be off in the woods killing endangered wildlife. Shades of the old tales about wolves raising human children as members of the pack, complete with snarling and a complete lack of human social skills. Cue pic of Courtney Love.

 

A farm dog in Ghana has attained hero status after spending a night protecting an abandoned newborn human.

 

Authorities say the dog, along with its two-week-old charge, was found under a bridge in Winkongo (which is near Bolgatanga, the Upper East Regional Capital of Ghana), near the farm where he lives – with the tiny baby snuggled against him.

 

A search party had been convened to look for the dog, not the baby, when the pooch's worried owner got concerned that her pet hadn't returned home in the evening.

 

Searchers spent most of the night tracking the hound through nearby fields and woods, and came upon the unlikely pair quite some time later; finally locating him under the bridge near the farm he calls home, they were surprised to find the dog curled around a human infant.

Cats, garlic, mmmmm.......

Cats best served slowly stewed or in a soup - leave the bones in for flavour. Garlic? You better believe it baby! That and a bit of chili but not so much the feline taste is over powered... Learnt it on Masterchef.
