    Default Killer Cat

    Any cat owner knows that they like to bring little presents around as kill to brag about or offer up to you as a present. Usually it's their favourite toy or an actual dead mouse or bird if they can get one. Well every now and then I'll wake up to find one of my badger brushes on the floor somewhere. It's obvious that the cat has brought it out to please me. Go figure. Never any damage to the brush and the boar seems immune to her charms so far.

    Your timing couldn't be better Xman, I just dumped a mouse in the trash tonight that was left at the foot of the bed. Our two cats have become killing machines in the past couple years. Luckily they can't get to my brushes, or haven't figured out how to.

    I used to have a cat that would bring in mostly unharmed chipmunks in order to "play" with them inside. One morning, I was sleeping on my stomach in bed when something sprinted up my leg. The cat was right behind it, and they both dug in their claws for grip on my bare back. Not my favorite way to wake up.

    Of course, after he got yelled at, the cat lost all interest in the chipmunk, and it took me a solid half-hour to catch the thing.

    My cat usualy brings in small lizards he catches outside. He plays with them until they are dead... a bit annoying but I don't yell at my cat because I know it's his way of showing that he is willing to contribute to the household economy.

    this wasn't a little bunny this was a overweight raccoon w/ floppy ears atleast 3x the size of my cat! I got a box and scooped it up then set it free and went back to bed. Woke up to a family of possums playing dead in front of the catdoor w/ milo sitting in front looking up at me a proud smirk on his face.

    Sounds like a business opportunity. No more buying badger hair knots. Just shave the ones your cat brings you.
