A few years ago, one of my neighbours' cat brought him an aborted foetus. The police found shortly later that the mother was a teenage girl who had just been dumped by the father and was suffering from depression. She had basically done a self-abortion with a coat hanger and discarded the foetus in a small wooded area 200 feet from her home. They brought her to the hospital because she had internal bleeding and her life was in danger. I don't know what the legal outcome of the case was. So tragic.
I'm afraid that the number of such attempts would unfortunately rise if access to abortion clinics were to be denied. It's a lose/lose situation.
Cats bring kills and such to their owners as gifts.
hmm..one time i went out in the garage only to see remnants of bird guts and the two bird legs..my can had eaten every thing else :Q
i've found bird legs laying about the garage..my cat's tried to bring in live birds too...and he has a couple times....i've found bird heads n' stuff..pretty nasty
This doesn't compare to some of the others mentioned here (hampster scraping comes to mind...), but our old cat once brought a live chipmunk without its tail into our house. We had a helluva time trying to get that thing out before it left too much blood around the house.
None of my pets brought in anything nasty (or anything at all).. but one of my dog's, when she was with her previous owners - used to eat kittens.. :Q .. yuck.
I once watched watched one of my cats stalk and kill a crow almost twice as big as he was. Needless to say, when I heard thumps on the porch and scratching at the door, I didn't open the door! :Q
My cat has brought in a plethora of gifts to me... Here is what I know of
3 ducks
2 rabbits
at least 18 squirles
~100 birds
~100 mice
and hes only 6 years old! I hate it when he brings stuff in the house. 1 of the ducks he brought in was a baby Mallard. It didnt fight with my cat, and it was literally unharmed, so I took it back down to the river and put it back with its mother.
Not my pet, but a friend of mine used to bring home roadkill, then photograph himself w/them. He'd hold the kill and make goofy faces, or act like he's biting off their heads. He would bring home all kinds of sh*t, I was pissed when he brought home the skunk. If it was too large to bring home, he'd take a picture of it on the road. Thank God that was many years ago, he's now all grown-up, sort of.
My German shepherd brought a pair of "very soiled" underwear into the house through our doggie door one night. And boy he was so proud of this luckey catch he got out of the neighbors trash......
then there is the time one of my Exs moved to Michigan. A deputy who lives down the street was visiting having a beer & the #$@% dog comes in chewing on her hand with a ring still on it.
Learned a lot from that. bury em deep & use quicklime !
