An abandoned baby red panda has been adopted by a zookeeper’s tabby cat at the Artis Zoo in Amsterdam? No way!

–Hey you hungry? You look hungry.
–Yeah, I could eat. And I’m a bit parched.
–Check it out, honey, I got milk. And there’s plenty of it to go around.
–You sure?
–Just get over here and start suckling.
–Wow. Thanks. Can I call you mommy?
–Slow down, panda. Let’s take this one step at a time, OK?
At least that’s how I think it must have gone down.
