Our “domesticated” feral cat just drops them off. She’s fed so well that, IMHO, she thinks she’s returning the favor. She is so picky about her wet food brands I don’t know why she would ever lower herself to eat a mouse. I guess she’s “been there, done that” as has moved on up.
In my youth, i had a roommate who had a cat (don’t judge; he was a good person anyway). Being a professional musician, he would often be gone for extended periods. Every time he came home, he would awken the next day to a mouse head & spine on the other pillow.
Of course, on the other hand, every time he brought a woman home (with one exception), she’d pee in his bed. “She” being the cat, not the girl.
I put mousetraps out in my garage. One time, there was only a head on one of the traps. Don’t know what ate the body. Cats cannot get into the garage when it is closed. It is a mystery to me.
Our cats are always bringing up mice, moles, lizards, and the occasional bird. One of mine brought me a baby cotton mouth once oh it was still alive. They do it to show you love. Hey they can’t go to the stores to get you one. I guess having outside cats you can expect gifts every once in a while.
I had a cat who used to put a fresh mouse under the Christmas tree among the gifts every single year. Then over the summer he would put one on my dad’s grill. He tried hard to please us but it was never to be. We never bbq’d his mice.

“Ludy”? Is this first time for that shortened name? I can remember only “Luddie” before this.

Mine brings them in at night and leaves them next to the bed for me to find in the morning. Squish!

Cats think we are terrible hunters so they want to make sure we are fed.

Our fearless hunter bagged himself a jay and left it under our bed. We didn’t clue in until we went searching for where the flies were coming from…

Tyge: My “domesticated feral” just plays with them….and some of them pick up on it and play with him…he rarely kills anything.
