Ive got two cats. Ones a hunter that’ll chase anything the other is a defender that will growl when someone’s at the door.
They found a mouse a month ago and all they did was tap at it, no claws, and follow and just watch it. Zero interest in taking care of it.
Eventually I just picked it up and put it outside. Ive never been so disappointed in my life lol
Damn, I was born in the countryside so the cats I grew up with were all so much more savages.
I’ve seen one of my cat eat the whole mouse in front of me once, it was quite surprising how easily it was gone, nothing left.
You picked up a live wild mouse with your bare hands? They’re a very big disease vector, and they bite. Be careful!
I was thankful that our cat was a straight up murder machine. She kept anything we wouldn’t want, far away from our house, including other cats. She was seriously the most bad-ass cat I’ve ever met. Never once lost a fight.
“Tap and Follow” is the new “Like and Subscribe”
Lol!

Alt text: Now she’s looking at me like this, like it’s my fault I lost it. I tore the whole bed apart. She caught it, and I have to sleep with it, but that’s my fault, obviously.
Yeah, she was definitely trying to teach you to hunt (some cats seem to consider their owners just gigantic incompetent cats). She’s probably saying something like “I even brought it right to you and you still couldn’t catch it?!”
Just another fuzzy creature to snuggle with. She wanted to share
smh. How are you ever going to learn to catch mice when you can’t catch one in your own bed?
For the record, she could be trying to help you learn to hunt.
maybe.
or she’s just an asshole.
What record is this for? Someone’s keeping a record?
the Cat Court!
I have to say that she’s just being a loving cat. They make me do it. they’re really benevolent overlords. honest.
I love my cat. One month after I adopted her and brought her home, the entire rat infestation is gone, zero mice, it’s been like 2 years since, I still haven’t seen any mice.
My primary reason was for companionship, but second reason to get a cat is hoping to get rid of all the mice, and it worked! Sadly the roach problems are still here… cats don’t really deal with roaches… 😓
That conversation can be interpreted in an entirely different way.
What other way?
