    Defying Nature!

    Not a very good image but I have kept it purely for the subject matter. We were assured that the neither the mice nor the cats had been drugged, just brought up together.

    Interesting. My wife loves this type of shot of theoretically mortal enemies living in harmony. She just showed me a video this morning of a mother cat taking care of ducklings along with her kittens. The cat got very upset when the ducklings were removed for a few minutes to feed them.

    "Defying Nature!"! Really?

    This very cool image has the benefit to put things straight. But the title should
    read "Defying Culture"! …since it proves that animals do have a "culture".

    For cats to chase mice is a cultural behaviour and not an automatic natural one.
    The same goes for mice's fear of cats!
