Anything that moves, but lizards seem to be Iris' favorite. She prefers stalking & catching her own meals to being fed from a bowl. I thought she was catching live stuff just to play with until a few days ago. I'll spare you the graphic details, but it looked like something from "Wild Kingdom"...
It's so funny the way cats will do the strangest things and then look at you like "What? Doesn't everyone do this?"

Turtle soup?
( I was in New Orleans with some friends years ago. I was sick, confined to my motel room. They were nice enough to bring me some hot soup, only telling me after I ate it that it was made with turtle. It was delicious!)
Yep, that's why we have such a problem with them. Our yard abounds with Japanese beetle & cricket grubs. I need to treat the yard but don't want to apply anything that would harm Iris. She generally spends a couple of hours a day running in the yard, chasing bugs, chewing grass, and attacking...
