Sure you still want that kitten? The adorable baby owl who LOVES to be petted

This irresistible baby owlet is practically purring with pleasure as her adoring owner spoils her rotten.

Too cute! Our obsession with owls, fuelled by the loyal and intelligent pets used by Harry and his wizarding pals, continues unchecked


And- unintentionally tapping into the passion for the curiously cute birds of prey-this incredible footage has clocked up nearly two million You Tube hits in two days.

The expression of bliss on the face of the adorable infant, as it gets a refreshing head rub from its unseen lady owl-keeper is pure magic.

The star of the film is undoubtedly the Little Owl, named Molla, which means spring in Italian.

Since the footage was shot at 'i falconieri delle Orobie', a medieval falconry event in the northern Italian municipality of Biassono, near Milan, a few days ago, little Molla has spawned a fan club and even has her own Facebook tribute page.

Last year India's environment minister warned that the craze for owl pets caused by Harry Potter mania was a threat to the country's 30 species.
