Alfie has brought the occasional rat home. Not always dead...

I used to be owned by a beautiful cat called Honda (he purred like one) who caught a frog one day and wandered up the path with a leg sticking out of each side of his mouth.  He really didn't know what to do next so I extricated the poor frog and released it unhurt into next door's pond.  Lately, big polar bear cat Harvey has been bringing rats home, ugh, but not so bad as birds.

We use chick crumb as cat litter.  We find a couple of slugs in the tray at bottom of stairs regularly and slime trails. They seem to love the "litter".

We pop them outside.  They are called Bill and Bob  :)

No offence Slugsta, lol, but when they find their way into your home and cat dishes etc, I want them gone! We have very wet ground around us and they are a nightmare.

We have a toad that visits, foolish thing.

Ollie was 'playing' with it, and poor Wordy got the watery eye, whatever the toad produces to ward off preditors.

Quite often hear a high pitched squeal!

They are good for eating the slugs though. :D

Beau brought the same frog home every morning for weeks.  I ended up taking the poor thing in my lunchbox  5 miles away and popping him in the Thames at Sunbury.  :shify:

Yes, that screech, I can hear it now.  :doh:

Kuki brought us a headless mouse this week.  :( OH stood on it with bare feet and it exploded.  :sick:  :shocked:

This is making me laugh thinking back to when we had one brought in!

Not the cats, but OH chasing it about, managing to catch it, only for the frog to jump out of his hands  :rofl:

Repeat the above approx 25 times until we finally got it out!!!  :rofl:  :rofl:  :rofl:

It has only happened the once, but I have seen them 'playing' with them in the garden.

I dont know if I would prefer frogs or the mice we regularly get......

Yes ...... we get frogs and toads brought in around May time usually and yes they do have the most heart renching squeals  :( but are almost invariably alive and seemingly OK before we repatriate them to near neighbours' pond.  Not scared of them though.  Just scared for them  :shy:

My Burmese lads used to catch them from a neighbours pond and bring them in. Almost every am there was screaming and a frog in their water bowl.
A frogs scream is awful
I am sure it was the same frog ... Catch it from said water bowl, take back to pond on lilly pad routine!

Does anyone else's cats like to bring them live frogs as presents?  Bloody things!  They don't kill them just bring them in and play with them!  Wouldn't mind but I'm petrified of them!
