I've got 2 cats. Both are male, and i inherited them from my mom after she moved to Florida. She took 3 cats with her, meaning she had 5 when she lived here in Nebraska(It's a long story
.) She couldn't take them all, so i took in 2 of the 5 cats she had. Both are male, and they love to go outside, and do god knows what. They seem to like catching small animals and bringing them to me. These animals aren't always alive, though. Sometimes, they're not in one piece, either. Yeah
. I've seen things in my front yard that would make Hannibal Lecter blush. Mice, small birds, rabbits, even squirrels. As a matter of fact, i found a dead squirrel in my front yard yesterday. I took it and threw it in my outdoor garbage bin. Don't give me that look! It's a squirrel! Anyway, today i see another dead squirrel, in the EXACT same spot as the squirrel from the previous day! The first thing i did was check the date, as i thought i was in that movie Groundhog Day.
This is perfectly natural though. Cats do this sort of thing. I just wish it was less often, so i wouldn't have to pick up so many dead animals. I even had to dispose of a dead bat last week! That's no typo, folks. Bat. That made me shudder! These cats like people, though. They won't do any harm to me or others. AND, i've never seen a single mouse in this place, so when someone has a mouse infestation and their friends jokingly tell them to get a cat, they're actually right! Beats mousetraps!
