The other day I averaged a mouse every two hours & found two under the sofa all crisp & very dead. (Must check & clean more regularly under sofa)

A packet of screws
A rubber stopper
A rabbit
Stones
And twigs...

Tilly always brings a particular toy mouse into me.. the poor mouse is completely battered, stuffing coming out, but she loves it!.

My sister's cat, Freddie is a terror, he regularly brings slow worms back to the house.. as well as the ocassional mouse  :evillaugh:

Pixie once came home with a gravy soaked yorkshire pudding.

Arty is the collector of strange things though. Some of his best have included the bone from a lamb roast, a pepperami, a muffin and an ever increasing collection of feathers. He tried to get a pigeon through the catflap once but he couldn't manage it!

He also likes to bring me presents in bed, from the kitchen, which have included a 2kg bag of oats, a large fruit cake, a bag of rasins and an egg.

Gotta love kitties and their funny ways  :Luv2:

Zephyr reguarly brings me earth worms (alive, unhurt and still wriggling) and banana skins  :scared:  He came home the other week with an empty crisp bag!
In ancient times cats were worshiped as gods; they have not forgotten this.

It's an interesting question you ask, Catinahat  :)  Any specific reason you are asking it?

Feliz came in last week making the typical "I have something" noise. I was terrified, was not up to facing a mouse, but no, it was a leaf  :rofl:

 :welcome: to Purrs, Catinahat: glad you found us and decided to join in  ;D  I think it's sweet that Toby's little tokens of esteem are twigs.  ;)

I think you should be grateful he prefers twigs to birds and mice  :evillaugh: Not quite the same as they get their 'prey' from inside the house but I frequently wake up with a drinking straw under the covers  :doh:
