Yeah, is about the only thing that gives one hope for this planet. It is funny that they talk about how crows hurt things with fur. Haven't they ever seen cats attack birds? And how would they know if the crow saved the cat?

Crows can and do swoop down and pick up small kittens to snack on.

This video is super cute! I sent this link to my mom.

Lovely. Though it would have been nice if there had been an explanation offered other than 'a miracle.'

Going to burst some bubbles. Yes the kitten and crow are friends. They probably were raised together. The story however I believe to be fake. If they filmed the two for months then the kitten did not age. Also my latest obssession is attempting to tame a feral cat and feral kitten. It is a very diffecult process and you don't just 'get them to trust you'. It takes weeks to even get close to them and longer than that to get them to let you touch them. Cute story tho.

It depends on a lot of factors, including how many generations back the cats were living with humans and what the kittens' earliest interaction with humans was, also how the kitten sees it's cat mom interact with a human for the first time, if at all.
Research has been done on this and I have also seen this in feral cat colonies. There used to be a huge feral cat colony here. People used to feed them and many were friendly, some were wild. My sweet kitty came from this colony (which has been displaced by gentrification.) Now I know of another small feral colony. Last year's batch of kittens was friendly and allowed themselves to be petted, and now a couple are pets. One of those kittens had babies this summer that are wild. They come to eat when they are fed- but they will not allow themselves to be touched.

The two ferals I picked up I trapped behind my restaurant and are now living on my patio during an adjustment period. I believe they came from someones house at sometime. The first has been on her own for a while is maybe one year (really pretty part hymalayan) and will now let me get within a foot of her. The other is about four months old and will let me hold him but won't come yet. They both know how to use the litter box which is what makes me think they were dumped. People seem to think if they are near a restaurant they will get food. The older one would jump into our dumpster. People are so stupid about pets sometimes
