Ours usually just leave the kidney! Well, at least, I think it's the kidney. They obviously don't like the taste of it, whatever it is! :eek:

One time when I was living with my godmother, I spotted two mice in my room. I took her cat, put it in the room, closed the door and later, when I opened it, there was one of them dead, which I flushed down the toilet, but I never saw the other one again. Good kitty!

Possibly. She was born feral, and that would be what a small feral cat would do with her pray. Or at least that was what one breeder of cats told me. Thankfully they are toy mice. She's also been known to pick up other odd objects for drowning. Hair bands are another favorite :confused:
At home with a good book and the cat...

Oh, I am joyously and genuinely laughing out loud. What a LOVERBOY.

I love my Lolly girl, but oh sometimes I do miss cats.

Ru had his shots the other day. I found out that his former people hadn't taken him in since 2010!!! And that they totally lied about him having a microchip.

Here he is spying a bird:

Ru has apparently befriended a young bird. And by "befriended," I mean he's carried the bird--who has a damaged wing, I think, because he can't fly--around in his mouth without killing or mortally injuring it; he even meows when he's holding it. On the second day, the bird hopped from hiding place to hiding place. Ru followed him around. The bird was having none of it, though, and gave him attitude. But Ru does lounge nearby, and shows no signs of wanting to attack. Maybe he's not used to his food talking back to him.

Here's the little scamp himself.
