Considering that's what cats are supposed to do, I'd say she's doing alright.

BTW, if you think that's bad...

My sister's cat managed to get on top of our birdhouse. She pulled the babies out of the nest one by one with her paw, & left nothing but a circle of blood & feathers underneath the nest.

I used to have a roomate who had two cats, and he let them outside all the time. Well they used to bring half dead animials and birds in the house all the time. They once brought in a bird and had mauled it so bad it could barely move. And they just paced around it, and would bite at it every now and then. So I walked in on it and knocked the cats away and took the bird and put it across the street in some bushes to give it a chance. I dont know if they found it or not. But thats what cats do.

Ha - that's not that bad. I have two cats, and I wake up with at least 1 animal on my doorstep every morning. ;)

chechi, you probably should have killed that bird yourself. It sucks, but I've done it. It saves the bird a lot of misery.

Or maybe people just shouldnt let their cats outside. Our neighbor cat sits under our bird feeder every now and then, and when ever I or my dad see's it, we shoot it with the bb gun. I probably should of just killed the bird. But I would of had a hard time snapping its neck.

When a cat leaves an animal on your doorstep, consider it a gift. The cat thinks it's feeding you. It's gross to us, but it's the thought that counts, right. :p

Exactly. The cat IS being nice by doing what it did.

Have it shaved, sterilized, and destroyed.


My cat kills and eats rodents/birds all the time when she's outside. The bad part is that she always throws it all back up. It's not unusual for to take my dog out for a walk and see a tail or some random body part on the porch and then see a pile of puke right next to it. It's disgusting.

True story: One time my goofy cat ate a mouse and puked it up on the front porch without my knowledge. Well, in the early afternoon I hear a knock on the door and I go and see who it is. I open up the door and I see no one there but I look down and see partially digested mouse body parts everywhere. I think to myself "Thank God whoever was here left 'cause that's disgusting". I shut the door, go back inside to find a broom or something to clean up the mess and I hear a knock at the door again. I go open the door and it was my neighbor wanting to borrow some ice.

I must have turned about 10 different shades of red 'cause I had no idea what to say. Here I am with cat puke all over my front porch and my neighbor outside wanting to borrow some ice. I said nothing about "the mess" and ran and got him some ice came back and handed it to him and he high-tailed it out of there (I don't even want to know what he thought while he was standing there).

Once he leaves I shut the door and wait for a while to make sure that he's gone before I go back out to clean up the mess. I eventually go back out and contemplate how I should go about disposing of the puke. I notice that most of it is all over the doormat so I figure I'll just pick it up by the one end, give it a good flip, and the puke should fly off into the bushes. I pick up the one end of the mat and get into position and I flip that thing as hard as I could. Stupid me I flipped too hard and all the puke came back and landed all over me. I had mouse body parts in my hair and all over my clothes, and I can't even describe the stench. The smell was enough to make me want to toss my cookies (well that along with the fur and assorted bits all over my body).

Naturally I freaked out and started frantically waiving my arms trying to get the mouse bits out of my hair and off my clothes. Once I had cleaned myself off to the best of my ability I ran inside, ripped my clothes off and jumped in the shower. Soap never smelled so good.

Moral of the story: Cats are evil and should be destroyed.

Chechi you should've put that poor bird out of its misery. Of course it had no chance.

Cougar...LOL, funny story.

Much easier said than done. I had a cat bring me a bird alive with some terrible wounds. I recognized that it was a gift, as horrible as it was. The kindest thing to do was to put the bird out of its misery. I did it, but I never felt so sick (both physically and heartsick) in my life as I did at that moment. I don't even kill bugs, I take them outside. :(

I would stop her from going outside, but then I feel bad for locking up the cat in the house, I mean, killing birds is all that has meaning in her life.


NATURE, why must you be so cruel?

I would find a basement full of pigeon feathers and feet and beaks. What a mess. I'd fire up the air compressor and blow the feathers and remains out the basement door only to find the whole mess all over again a few weeks later. kitty kitty kitty

My cat had a chipmunk one time, the poor little thing was harldy moving, so I chased the cat off and went to get a shovel to throw it in a field behind our house. When I came back the chipmunk was limping around in a little circle real slow and my cat was back. Before I could get rid of the cat again, the chipmunk jumped up in the air about a foot, and hauled ass into some bushes. I was laughing and my stupid cat was all like "WTF?" Pretty funny.

We used to have 2 cats at home, brother and sister. The female liked my brother a lot, and used to bring him 'presents' all the time. This usually meant he'd find dead butterflies or worse in his shoes. One holiday the garden was plagued by a mole, and when she brought him yet another butterfly he got slightly annoyed at her and said 'Why don't you kill that mole instead!'. Next morning we heard her meow at the door, and there she sat, next to a dead mole.
