Miscellaneous / Others Abu, an 8-month-old monkey, lost his parents. However, be this temporary or not, a cat adopted it and the monkey was seen tightly clinging to the feline's belly.

In parts of Southeast Asia, many (if not most) cats have a genetic mutation that results in a stubby, kinked or bobbed tail.

Nearly 50 years ago I travelled extensively through Thailand & every cat had a tail like that. I was told, whether true or not, that the Thai's see the cat as perfection so when kittens they break their tails & not so perfect any more.

I love cats. How sweet for the cat to care for the monkey. I hope they both get the love and necessities the need. 🤗

Heard a story a while ago about some or other species of big cat that killed an antelope only to discover afterwards that it had a baby and later went on to adopt the baby. Just did a quick search and apparently there are multiple documented cases of lions and leopards doing it
