With tenderness and interest that are no less than what the mother shows, a cat tends and raises about 20 chicken chicks in one of the villages of Harir district in Erbil Governorate in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, after she raised about 20 chickens during the past two years.

The cat accompanies the chickens to wherever they go and shows interest in them, and provides food and drink for them, in addition to guarding them at night and placing them underneath them to warm them.

The owner of the cat received many tempting offers to buy it, but he refused that, and also offered to hold cat and chicken shows in several Iraqi governorates, but subject to his approval that the amounts of the offers be donated to cancer and heart hospitals.
