Yes.

When I was 8, I found a hurt crow in the front yard. I picked it up and put it in a box and tried to give it water and made it a bed. It died a couple of hours later. I was so upset about it my parents let me have a parakeet.

Several years ago we returned home from our beach vacation and I saw something in the backyard. It was a cat and her 4 kittens. Of course I went outside and gave them food and water and they were very shy. Sadly a neighbor caught 2 of them in traps(one day I saw my favorite in the trap and I opened it and let it out) and I guess took them to the shelter. The other 2 I was finally able to tame and they are still hanging around my parents house to this day. I'm still the only one who is able to touch Boots, but Sam lets anyone near him. I haven't seen their mother in years and I was never able to tame her.
