We used to live in the bush, with lots of kangaroos. Our neighbours would also rescue and hand raise kangaroos from accidents, and release them on the property; the rescue roos were less scared of people than the native roos.

Anyway. One of the rescue roos, who we called Wattle, used to come around and play with our cat sometimes. The kangaroo - a medium female gray - was probably 170cm tall, and the cat was just a cat. They used to chase each other around the yard, for minutes at a time, and did so many times. It was hilarious.

Fun side fact: kangaroos love eating banana skins. Who knew?
