My cats are boring, the only thing they bring in the house is fleas from the neighbours cats!

Kitty has only once brought in a mouse, and she killed a pigeon about a year ago which she was really proud of.

Sounds sick but, I so wish she'd bring more! Isn't it a sign of love or something? Like their contribution to the family? We live in a cul-de-sac in town though, so there isn't much around :sleep:

Lovely kitties by the way! Love all the random junk they bring it. They must really love you!

Rats, mice and birds.

Quite often they're still alive. I recall one particularly disturbing incident where she brought home a huge rat and dumped it on the kitchen floor. It was obviosuly paralysed in some way as it could only move one side of it's body and made a few pathetic attempts to escape. During the minute or so that it took me to decide what to do with it she kept grabbing it by the neck and the rat was screaming very loudly. She was wide-eyed and loving every minute of it.

In the end I got it off her and took it into the garden where I hit it with a spade.

I guess they do but I could do without body parts from squirrels. Also arriving home with living mice and losing them in the house. It took me a week to find 1 mouse and that was only because I ordered a mouse friendly trap from the tinternet.

We have 3 cats, 2 coons and a non pedigree that closely resembles a shorthair. We have squirrels, mice, rats, rabbits, pigeons, especially Lost ones, a parrot (wild green one), and the very occasional pheasant. They radiate smugness when they've got something big. Only Kit, the elderly mog actually brings anything inside, usually a mouse. OH is scared stiff, son and I have to re-catch them. They are always alive and in good health.

I didn't fancy their leftovers. There were only those unidentifiable twiddly bits of guts left when they'd finished

If my cat catches a bird she leaves me the head, wings and feet.

She's so kind.

Mostly old toys that they find in the garden. Sometimes half a cricket or cockroach.

Mine mainly bring in mice - dead or alive. Fortunately I'm not scared of them so if they are alive and unharmed I scoop them up in a container and take them outside again.

They've also bought in the occasional pigeon.

The worst thing is when you get up in the morning and not looking where you are going tread in the entrails of some poor unfortunate mouse that's been eaten during the night.

Gus (huge ginger tom, 10 yrs):

Rabbits, including one live baby bunny who we managed to rescue and release successfully
Countless mice, voles and shrews, dead and alive
Countless birds, including thrushes, blackbirds, sparrows, blue tits, a goldfinch and once a tiny goldcrest (these are quite rare and he's such a git )
Several live moles (how does he do that?)
Frogs
And once - he brought in a beautiful stoat, dead but unmarked - I think it must have died of fright!

Flo (18 month old female):
She's a tiny little cat but she's an expert hunter and brings in countless mice and shrews, usually live, kicking and squealing, which she then lets go on the carpet and we usually end up having to set a trap for them after a few days of trying unsuccessfully to catch them . She's pure white, which makes her too conspicuous to have much success with birds, although she has managed to catch them a couple of times. It's hilarious watching her stalking them - she's discovered the best way to fool them is to hide by creeping from bush to bush and flowers then at the last possible moment jump several feet in the air trying to get them from above - she still needs a bit of practice to perfect this method but it is so funny to watch.

Poor little creatures - even though I know it's only nature I still feel so sorry for their victims.

Weeble (deaf, brain-damaged and mad)


http://i360.photobucket.com/albums/o...f/DSCF0045.jpg



has only one conquest to her name, but she was VERY excited about it when she came in from the garden and it took me about ten minutes to take my life in my hands, corner her and remove it from her without getting severely injured.

The object of her desire?

A whole cooked sausage.....




Still, I suppose they don't run fast or try to fly away, which is just as well or she wouldn't have had a chance of catching it!

My mums old cat bought a sausage that was still hot, lord knows where it came from. Surely the victim must have noticed they were down one sausage.

Our two couldn't catch a cold so it's not been an issue for us, even the sausage would have escaped if these two had gone for it.
