It's *** funny mix *** mama cat Cleo, her hubby Milo, both taking time to care and even nurse their two little bunnies, *** pretty hair raising sight. She started cleaning it, picked them up, and took off with them. So how did Cleo the cat come to? For these rabbits, her owners say she took them in just after losing her litter last week. Somehow Milo here knew the kittens wouldn't make it, so he brought the rabbits back from the woods just in time. And now Cleo makes sure the foursome are inseparable. She'll walk around the house and cry just to find them, and they'll come hopping out wherever they're hiding. Cleo takes care of them. Did she give him baths? And she gives him bath. We locked the bunny in my room. Cause we didn't want to be. On the couches and even if they're tough to train with that motherly instinct, they'll still be the cleanest rabbits around. I kittens, but they're Stacy Miles, WMUR's News 9.
