Ok, well um Bonnie escapes at times and what she does is climbs on the door and meows when she wants back in. Only last night I go to open the door and there is a dead mouse in her mouth!! Now normally I wouldn't do this...but I let her bring it in. I knew she was trying to teach her kitties a lesson so I didn't want to interupt nature. I have to say the reactions from the kittens were really cool. Some seem uninterested and some wanted to play with it. ONe even had it for a few minutes and would baby growl if any of the other ones would get near it!! If none of them were paying attention, Bonnie would meow and play with it and take it to them. It was like having the discovery channel in my kitchen! Needless to say about after 20 minutes I made the hubby take it back outside lol.

Oh and btw they are all over the house right now hehe. As soon as I can I will post pics!

Sirha...has Bonnie been fixed yet?? If not....then it is of the utmost urgency to get her in to be spayed. There is a very good chance she is pregnant again if she has been allowed outdoors. Can you confine her in a dog crate until her spay appt.?? That would be preferable to having her be pregnant again.

How old are her kittens now?? If they can eat without needing mom...then it's time for her spay appt.

Yes please do not let her outside until she is spayed, assuming she isn't yet.
Also, if the kittens aren't vaccinated, I would be worried the mouse could bring something in. Why do they need to learn to catch mice?
