    Well, animals are much smarter than we think. That is why we should stop looking down on them.
    I love hearing animal stories like this. It's just a miracle that these animals didn't kill him.
    It's a really cute story though :)

    That's such a cute story. I'd hate to imagine what the scaps the Boy was eating were though. =/

    I know. It's stories like this that give me hope, in a world where people do stupid **** all the time for no reason. :(

    Wow that is amazing. Animals are so caring no matter what. I wonder why his dad didn't look harder for him though. It's like "Oops! Where's my son? Oh well .... la-de-dah!"

    Thats one of the coolest things I have ever seen although I wish the specialist wouldn't have made the reference that the casts were just with him for warmth and that the scraps were theres and he was just eating them. Thats is awsome thanks for sharing this!

    Perhaps they were try to fatten the baby up? *gasp*
    They were licking him because they like the taste!
    Father probably wanted to get rid of him

    i forget where i heard this but i've heard about other times where peoe grow up with animals and start acting like them, when found by other people they treat them as a threat, can't communicate and just act like they are actually that animal it's weird how you act based on how you are raised

    Well it's understandable to act that way, though, if that's all you know. Humans learn based on what's around them.

    Cute story, thoguh :)

    There must be some non-language communications between human and animals.
    People call it Pheromone, but the detailed mechanisms are poorly understood.
    Just like this case, we don't know exactly why these cats want to feed the boy.
    Something like this is really appealing & worth researching.

    I think this is more alone the lines of, animals are much more caring than we think... I would not say this shows intelligence.

    The sun also mentions that aliens are real and that their existence will be proven in a week...

    What a cute story :) Makes me kind of sick though because my son is 1 and I couldnt imagine him living with cats. Where were his parents? I look at my son, and hes really smart, and walking around, and learning to speak, but he is still just a little helpless peanut... My whole world would crumble if something were to happen to him, so it makes me sad that the parents didnt put more effort into finding their baby.

    Animals are not what most of you think they are. They aren't random wild living things. They actually have the skills to survive in this world, that's why they are not extinct. You know, us humans used to be like this, each animal (we are animals) depending on each other. You might be afraid of some of them, but they can be nice like above, but if they feel you are threatening them, they will try to get you away.
