Back when I was little, my moms cat caught and brought in a live bat into the house. Man did my mom freak. Ran out of the house like her hair was on fire. I just sat on the couch and watched it fly around lol.

Todd would bring live birdies and mice in for the amusement of Addie. They would "play" with them until they died...than we could have them.

When my sisters cat were allowed outdoors one of her boys Sebastian would bring back pigeons almost every day and eat them on the doorstep.

Now they are indoor cats so they only get the occasional fly

Pepsi is the hunter in our house - well I am sure Teddy hunts too, but as yet he's not brought anything home


Pepsi has caught

seagull x 2
yes ! I once caught her dragging one through our cat-flap, not an easy thing, feathers all over the place !
rabbits of all ages
moles
mice
birds
crickets
lizards & geckos
frogs

oo and a weasel, she had done a perfect kill and there were no wound marks so my DH got the damn thing stuffed
its looking at me now from the book shelves


most times I rescue the things if they are still alive, but she tends to eat the rabbits and leaves me an odd leg or ear


Dino is the specialist and usually catches dead leaves or empty crisp packets


Miss Moofi - well she's not brought anything in, but I've seen her stalking birds

moles... I always feel bad because they have a big puncture wound in the middle of their back and they are all squirmy, but Noira always looks so proud of herself.

Cleo has caught two mice in the basment (before I found where they were coming in) and presented me with the decapitated bodies. What exactly is so tasty about mouse heads? She also brought me one of those big fat fuzzy bumble bees....alive...and laid it down on the rug beside the bed for me. Scared the bejeebers outta me when I reached down to throw her toy for her and it buzzed in my hand!!!

It was when we lived in the UK by a canal and next to a marina, the marina had slopping sides and the gulls used to sit there . Pepsi would sit for hours stalking them, until finally she caught one, then another. The 1st one, I caught her dragging in the cat-flap
the 2nd she'd already got into the house and was on her bed plucking the thing - disgusting

this is a rabbit she caught recently , but I managed to get it off her

loads, but she doesn't look like a evil seagull killer

here she is with one of her more acceptable kills - a pinecone

she only weighs about 5 kilos - shes an old gal now, shes over 13 yrs old, she caught the gulls about 10 yrs go ! but as you can see she still likes to hunt now and then !

and 'no' shes not the boss, my newbie Teddy is at the moment !

Fawn brought us a crow a few years ago, but the usual treasures are mousies, smaller birds and, in wet weather, worms! She is the usual hunter, but Cindy brings something home from time to time, usually a mouse. It's a while since Suzy has brought us anything, but she did give Daddy a lesson in killing a bird on the back porch several years ago.

spiders. beware when your cat is "smacking his/her lips" and you try to make them drop whatever it is. i've had a live spider come out of the mouth of my cats more than once. note, the spiders are not dangerous/poisonous, but if you have a heart condition, i'd avoid it. :-)

Mice, voles, birds, squirrels, a grouse and a grasshopper. Missy was stray before, so she always eats what she kills, Kagome just likes to play with what she catches. She's the reason I've come home to birds flying around my living room.

Zissou's a wuss, and indoor only except on her leash.

But my nephew-cat caught a bat once. My bil heard a big racket in the middle of the night, comes downstairs with his gun drawn, turns on the light, and finds

his cat, pinning a bat to the carpet by its wings, trying to kill it, and his other cat watching and "helping"
