I hope someone can help us!
We recently moved from the suburban areas of Dublin City to the outskirts of the county, to a seaside town called Skerries, we have 4 cats, Kitt (Mum), Spike (Dad), Parker and MJ (babies). They love the move, theres plenty of grass and fresh air for them to run around in, a field out back for them and one more thing they weren't used to before.... RAST AND MICE!!! Kitt taught the kids how to hunt (Spike and Kitt are both just over 1 while the kids are both 5 motnhs) and now they won't stop....
I am forever coming across headless mice and rats in the kitchen and the garden, its horrible, I wouldn't mind so much if they just left them there as a present to us but no, they eat half of them, I found a pair of rat legs in the kitchen the other day, this can't be sanitary! Also, I've noticed since they have been eating (its mainly Parker but Molly does do it too), the rats they have a very distinct smell to them, sickly sweet and not very nice, its in their litter tray and because we can't get them to use the litter tray all the time (we leave the back door open all the timebut they still pooh in the living room in secret places) its stinking up the house....
I'm raching the end of my tether with the rat eating, what can we do? Feed them more? Theyre getting portky as it is lol!
Please help us!!!!!!!!!
