Yes, this is a great video of ducklings suckling a cat. It is extraordinary partly because ducklings don’t do this. They eat solids from birth. The mother found the ducklings about 2 hours after she’d given birth which meant her powerful mothering instincts took over and she automatically cared for the ducks. We have the strange sight of her feeding the ducklings and kittens together. When the ducklings grew up they were a handful for her but they now follow her around just as they would their real mom. The farm owners initially believed that their cat had eaten the ducklings when they could not find them!
