Rags To Riches: Sickly Starving Kitten Rescued And Raised By Six Ferrets (PHOTOS)

A starving, sickly, homeless 5-week-old kitten wanted nothing more than to be rescued by a family. She needed some fairy godmother from a fairy tale to wave a magic wand over her and give her a family that would love her unconditionally and ensure that she would never be on the mean streets again.

Well, she got her wish and then some: six fabulous ferret older brothers who would lift her spirits and watch over the tiny baby. They were anxiously awaiting the home's newest bundle of joy and were thrilled to welcome her into their habitat while she recovered, according to White Wolf Pack.

Think of the ferrets as six of the seven dwarfs, as they took this "manny" duty of theirs very seriously and taught her the zen ways of the ferret, including the ferret swing, the 18-plus hours a day naps that seems to be the ferret way of life, and best of all, always a brother, or two, or six, to snuggle with.

It was a family affair to nurse the kitten, now named Komari, back to health, and the ferrets gladly did their part, The Dodo noted. They were right there as she grew, and boy did she grow! But they didn't mind, this was their "little" sister.

The group of seven ate together, played together and of course, napped together. It was a match made in heaven for the kitten and her extended family, says Boredom Therapy.

Does Komari think she is a ferret, or does she just have enough love in her heart for those that saved her?
