We always thought that our cats were poor hunters. They don’t know how to be stealthy at all. They run around the house and sound like a heard of elephants. They have been able to catch a couple of baby mice though. They’ve tried to chase birds in the yard, but they can’t get anywhere near them. That apparently all changed today.
Shadow brought me a Chickadee this afternoon. Left it on the floor outside the bathroom door while I was in using the facilities. She was sitting next to it, so proud of her catch. Luckily it was dead, becuase I don’t know what I would have done with a live injured bird in the house.
I guess now I’ll have to fix the screen door so the cats can’t go in and out freely, and check their mouths closely when I let them in. I miss the days when they were afraid to set foot in the grass…
