Is your CAT a killer?

My cats are...and honestly thats what i have barn cats for. I'd freak if i had a live mouse turn up in my house. I appreciate when they bring me a "gift" because it means theres fewer mice on the farm to get into the grain...eat furniture stored in outbuildings...poop all over things and transmit hantavirus.

Of course, both my cats Rocky and Oliver love to chase and kill small little creatures. I also have a sugar glider, and they know to leave him alone. In fact, the sugar glider is just as deadly as my cat. If you put a mouse in his cage, it doesn't stand a chance. But killers or not, you've got to admit they manage to keep killing cute. My cat likes to bring me the birds he's killed, like he's feeding me and the family.

hmmm... i dont know about this but i just got a cute kitty (7 weeks old) a few days ago and he is very mellow and he just love to sleep and play with my 7 months old yorkie. his name is kevin and he is very sweet. i dont know if he will change when he grow older... hehehe

I have a bug killer that about it my older cat just likest to play with the bugs but my younger kitty is a dedicated bug killer she kills fly and spiders and what ever seems to bother her that day.

Our cat hunts bug, but Oscar is a strictly indoor cat, which helps. Oh he sneaks out from time to time, but he never seems to want to wander, just sit by the door a chill.

yes, I only have one cat and he is a real killer. I have found feathers and beaks in my house where he kills birds and then eats them inside. He also kills rats, tarantulas, lizards, and pretty much anything that moves. Since my surrounding neighbors' have passed away, their homes and our now condemned by the city, their grass gets really high, higher than my 6 ft. fence. My cat kills whatever comes from over there.

mine are bug hunters,that's about it for the most part. the one boy caught a field mouse in the house once,and looked absolutely disgusted. he gave me a look like "mommy,toy went squish" and ran away from it poor thing,i think he thought it was a wind-up mouse.

Only killed a rat and ate a lizard! Some raccoons tore him up, so he is more careful now! Stays home more often. we need some cats to help control rodents, as they are full of diseases.

All of our four cats are indoor only so even if they would want to kill something, they don't have an opportunity. The are very good about finding insects; and if they can't get them, they at least tell me where the bugs are.

Yes, she was, my Birdie was a cold blooded killer and she was proud of her "kill".. We would be in the living room with the front door open at night and hear a "thump-thump" on the front door, it was Birdie with her "kill".. She would catch little moles in our yard and bring them to the door and "throw" them at the door until we came out to brag on her.. We also came home one day and as we were walking up the driveway to the house, she was in a "smacking" match with a huge snake of some kind and she was getting the best of the snake.. She would raise her paw and smack the snake senseless before it even knew what had hit him.. I am not even going to mention the birds, I am ashamed of her for these "kills".. She is no longer with us but I enjoyed her for years, she was a "Killer" friend..

Sounds like Dubby is the perfrct match for my Miss Kitty She actually went for someones throat on day. My friends had come over with their cat to have a playdate. When they were ready to leave, dude got down on hands and knees to look for their cat under the furniture. Out came Miss Kitty fangs and claws exposed. Headed directly for the throat. Dude jumped up and shouted "Your cat is trying to kill me!" She normaly tolerates most people but she has certian people she does not like no matter what. I allowed her to have kittens once and kept two of the babies so she would have bloodline playmates. Lol! Wasnt till Bubba got bigger than her she stop slapping him around. She still slap Sissy around. She loves them sometimes too. When ever one of them come close to her they just stop till she makes the first move. You never know if its really Miss Kitty or Syble. Even if people come to visit. Its "is this the pycho cat?" I just tell everyone if she comes to you for attention its ok just dont go to her. She is the ruler of her world. It's all about Miss Kitty. She wont take no for an answer. If she gets in trouble and i get after her and one of the kits around she slaps them coz she got in trounble.

Hunting is a cat's natural instinct. Remember that they are related to the big cats (lions, tigers, etc) who have to kill their prey to eat. Most "house" cats who are allowed to go outside will do this. My cat is not allowed outside, so he pounces on any kind of a bug that ventures into our house. A fly drives him wild. Sometimes he will actually catch it.

You have made laugh hard! Yes my Spottie girl is a killer. Birds, some mice but mostly the poor lizard community has suffered the most casualties! It's their nature And when she brings her catch to you is her way of saying: Mommy I love you, see Iam a great hunter! It does not matter how well feed she is.

My cat loves caching insects and eating them. Flies, butterflies, bees ever wasps (despite the fact he was biten by one). He also loves 'hunting' birds. He chaught two - one from our balkon (and this sparrow survived) and the second he killed and brought home to show us... But he doesn't attack rodents - when he was really little he was bitten by our degu and from thet time he leaves rodents alone. He doesn't even reacts when my rat sits on him.

My cat is an indoor cat,she is a cute cat. I don't get many gifts to her. i like my cat very much,When she was a kitten she would chase bugs and catch them and then eat them. I didn't mind, although it wouldn't be good if she ate a poisonous one. However, now she hardly ever catches any bugs she just plays with them. some cats are outdoor cats,they catch gifts from other family.

Yes, my cat is a murderer. I call him my hired killer. I pay him in milk and he kills mice for milk. He even says, "Mil" for milk. His most interesting prey were the kangaroo mice (front legs small, bag legs long and they hop) and some bird of prey that upset me because it's illegal to hunt birds of prey for people here, so he could have gotten us into trouble (baby bird with sharp beak and tallons, not sure what it was, maybe it was defective and the mother threw it out of the nest or maybe it fell out or maybe it tried to fly and wasn't ready), it was the same size as my cat. Told him to take it to the woods! Everything he brings in he calls "Mou" which we think is milk, but he must be translating it as food. He wants "mil" for all "mou" (food).

My cats are indoor cats. No hunting experience.

Well, my youngest cat from my girlfriend's parent's house is a real killer. It has a ratio of 2 night butterflies per night, 1 frog and one mice per week. Also in the summer it kills crickets

We've got a couple of "mighty hunters" - Rygel in particular. The cats spend most of the day outside in what we call "the playpen" (We had it built along an inside corner that was pretty much a mud pit) and sometimes a gecko or the occasional mouse or rat will very foolishly wander into the playpen and, well they don't always get out alive. The cats have pulled a couple of rat corpses into the house and Elic always makes me deal with them.

lol, I had a cat like that. I think its instinct, because he normally wouldn't even eat it just drag it inside to show the family his accomplishment. He always looked upset that we were not more appreciative!
