Tonight she brought in a mouse, and before tucking in, she laid it down very carefully in her food bowl...
Despite appearances, the mouse was still alive, and, since I didn't fancy the idea of listening to it being slaughtered in the middle of my beauty sleep, I felt obliged to rescue it.
Many years ago my cat Moses did something similar when he didn't like the standard of cat food he was being fed. After a lengthy standoff over this question, he went outside, caught a dove, brought it inside and dumped it in the food bowl. We took the hint, dispatched the dove, and changed the brand of cat food.

ReplyDeleteI'm so disappointed! I thought you were about to tell us she had said grace!
More cat posts please
ReplyDeleteMac have you never heard of marinading food before eating?
