Is there any practical way of preventing an indoor/outdoor cat from bringing its prey into the house? I'm thinking of installing a cat flap; however, I can't see how a cat flap would keep the "catch" outside where I'd like it to stay.
Ummmmmm......who said it was dead??? Not moi!!Originally Posted by GoldenKitty45
.....be thankful your cat's prey is dead.
That means I continue to be employed as a doorman to a cat.Originally Posted by rapunzel47
.... File it under "C'est la vie!".
Well, that, of course, is preferable, anyway. What self-respecting cat would squeeze through a cat flap, when there's a perfectly good human around to open the door?Originally Posted by coaster

My veteran indoor/outdoor cats hardly bring any prey anymore. They are familiar with my reactions (disgust, little anger and sadness). The younger ones are still learning but the number of "gifts" has greatly lessened. So I suggest you just reward your cat when he leaves the prey outside and do the opposite if he brings it in.Originally Posted by coaster
