Our male cat Zazoo loves catching birds and mice.
Before now we have got up to birds flapping round the kitchen as hes brought them in but hasn't killed them. The biggest bird he has brought in was a Magpie, how on earth he got it through the cat flap, god only knows.
A few years ago he kept bringing us baby mice, every day we had them in the kitchen or outside the back door till one day he brought us 2 adults, we guessed that they were the parents of the babies.
In contrast, our other cat Jasmine doesn't kill anything. She tends to nick food, the best one was many years ago, she sneaked into next door's kitchen and nicked a brisket joint that was cooling on the worktop, all we heard from the garden was our neighbour shouting at the cat as she legged it down the garden and disappeared over the fence.
Guess what we had for tea (I had cooked pork chops)?
Ruddy cats!!!!
LOL! My George (the one who looked like the Beast of Bodmin) was actually chased down the field by a pair of magpies - mind you, knowing him, he'd been after their nest and got his just deserts ...
My present cats were virtually abandoned and had to scavenge and hunt much of the time before they discovered the 'drop in centre' (my cellar window.) They immediately decided to put their old life behind them and eat nothing but PROPER catfood and tuna (to this day they will not eat cold chicken scraps.) But they still did a bit of scavenging for fun, and one day I found a large chicken joint in the front room, cooked, and with only a nibble out of it.
But a joint of brisket ...she must be one hefty cat! Love it! LOL! |
