This is the neighborhood cat who seems to spend all of her leisure time on our front porch or in the garage in incliment weather. She is definitely a mouser, but also successfully hunts small birds. This week has been a very successful week for her. Two mice in the backyard, one in the front, and a baby mouse dropped on the front porch right outside the door (Bekah found that one and it was still wiggling in the cat's mouth!). She has killed mice before and brought them over, but never this many in one week. I don't mind her doing this, it rids the neighborhood of pests, but we have to watch where we step! Sometimes she brings them over alive and plays with them. I came home from a walk one morning with Sam and we found her on the front porch eating a little sparrow that she just caught. I've never spent a lot of time around cats, being allergic and all. Do all cats do this? Thursday, October 23, 2008

That cat totally loves you. She's showing off.
We had a cat like that in Virginia. Although, instead of animals she would poop on our front porch. It made me crazy!!!! I could tell she loved us because she was always laying on our porch or back porch. Meow and rub up against us when we would come home. But poop, I'd totally take the dead animals...or alive ones.
Good luck with your new cat:)
No, all cats definitely do not do that. Ours did finally catch one mouse, but for the most part she is just lazy.
