    Who knows, you're not going to have the car put down so accept the loving gifts and wear the socks

    There was one in the papers the other day which steals keys.

    Maybe you should drop an apologetic note into neighbour's letter boxes and ask them to contact you if they have items missing!

    That's cute. My 3 cats wear magnets on their collars to operate the cat flap and they frequently come home with nails stuck to them, never keys thank goodness.

    Aw that is wonderful. My late puss used to bring me home empty crisp and biscuit packets and sweetie wrappers. Strangely enough he never brought me home a bird or a mouse, thankfully.

    My kitten constantly brings me socks from the clothes horse, they are going to be going outside soon, dreading to think what pressies I get!

    some nights I wake to the sound of a poor mouse in my bedroom ,having been brought in by some of the cats the call goes up for the other cats to come and see.they let the youngest cat have it.i know its nature but I feel sorry for the mouse.

    during the day they can bring birds in,usually dead but a few times I've managed to rescue the bird .i imagine the bird can't believe its luck one minute surrounded by cats then freed.
