my cats are just so cute

[Friday]

Ezme caught another mouse, and is currently engaged in energetically disembowelling it on the living room floor.   

My cats would be so jealous.  The most excitement they ever get is an occasional bug crawling across the carpet.

Ezme caught at least two mice in my old apartment in Nashua.  Either I have a knack for finding mice-ridden places to live, or she's a good mouser (or both).

I think our cats get two a day

Tommy just caught his first mouse; my baby boy is all grown up.     And unfortunately, I got to listen to an extended session of bat-the-already-dead-mouse around on the bedroom floor while I was trying to sleep.  When I felt a cat jump onto the foot of the bed, I knew something was going horribly awry.   

I fear it's going to be a long winter.

At least you don't have live mice running around

Awww, sorry Friday!     At least he's a good 'mouser' though and that will help you keep any mice problems in control.

My sister helps feral cats in the neighborhood , she has about 20 in her yard.  She gets some spayed/neutered as she can afford it but they leave dead birds, mice, moles, etc. on her steps almost every hour.  It upsets her but they are cats.

Good luck and I hope it's a good long winter for you and Tommy!

We got us a double standard when it comes to birds and mice.

Cats Kill Over 1 Billion Birds Each Year in U.S.
Thursday, March 20, 2008

Some folks don't seem willing to accept the magnitude of the cat predation problem. While it is a bit tricky to come up with solid numbers of birds and other animals killed, we can make estimates based on a growing number of studies of cat predation.

How to Choose a Cat Who Will Kill Mice

Just about any cat will kill a mouse, given the right circumstances. Some cats seem to live for the hunt, though, while others prefer to wait for the occasional mouse to stumble directly into their paths. If you live in an area where mice and other rodents are a problem, there are a few guidelines you can use to find a cat who will eagerly seek out such prey.

Naw, I'm fine with my cats killing birds.  Little tweeting, flying, pooping, seed-demanding freaks.  If God had wanted them to fly, he'd have given them wings.     Wait, that didn't come out right.

We had a woodpecker for a while that seems to have finally moved on. Made a hole in my house. If my cat had killed that thing, I would have arranged a ticker tape parade in her honor.

According to my vet, a lot of cats dig running water. She put the faucet on to distract one of my cats while he was getting examined.

Water Waster Cat is illegal in CA, NV and NM.
Check your local codes for applicable restrictions to your cat's cute activities.
There may also be state and federal restrictions... and the UN... the UN will also have restrictions on your cat's cuteness activities.

I've read that cats love trickling/running water.
And have seen my own cats be the same way.

When I'm in the bathroom Niko will often jump onto the sink and meow at me until I tunr in the water just a little bit so he can drink and play in it.

I understand that new movers to CA have to put their water wasting cats and large screen TV's in a 'blind trust'.
