Mine eats backwards without problem, even though it's not the most common "direction". It's like she's too lazy to even bother!

Haha, just seen this picture on your other thread. I think I've only seen Aphrodite eat forwards once and it wasn't really forwards, she decided to eat it starting from the back of the head, so that she ate the head sideways instead of nose first. It took her ages and it was a good job that it was a smallish mouse compared to her normal size meals.

Monster will do the same if it's a little smallish compared to normal.

I love it at the last moment when it looks like they have whiskers!
