"Here at Obsessed, we coo at so-cute-I-can&amp;#x27;t-stand-it photos of puppies and kitties like it&amp;#x27;s our job. (Oh, wait, it kind of is?) But these pics from new book One Big Happy Family: Heartwarming Stories of Animals Caring for One Another by Lisa Rogak has had me in a constant MEEP! mode all day today. I need to look away so I can get back to writing about Bruce and Kris Jenner&amp;#x27;s split (though would you really be too sad if I didn&amp;#x27;t?). Anyway, I&amp;#x27;m here to share the love and some brief stories about these animal buddies. Enjoy: Meet golden retriever Koa, who discovered a nest of wild baby rabbits near her home and ever since has nurtured them as if they were her own little puppies. Zara the lion cub was born in a zoo in Great Britain and needed to be hand-reared by the zoo director. Luckily her ginger tomcat, Arnie, stepped in to help with some love and affection. A resident of a small wildlife park, chimpanzee Anna (nice name, BTW!) was fascinated whenever puppies were born on the premises. She loved to cuddle with them and would get protective if a stranger got too near the litter. When the owner of rabbit Summer brought home a litter of foster kittens, she expected her cat to help serve as a surrogate mom to the kitties&amp;amp;#8212;but instead it was Summer who ended up nurturing them. Susie had recently given birth to three puppies&amp;amp;#8212;but they were soon to go to new homes&amp;amp;#8212;so when her owner discovered three abandoned baby squirrels, she accepted them and treated them as if they were part of her own litter. For more too-cute pics and true, heartwarming stories about interspecies adoption, pick up a copy of One Big Happy Family. Photos Courtesy of MacMillan"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
