Cats and huntingApparently last night after my parents had gone to bed and I'd gone to bed, my brother came home and found some remains in the back room.
Apparently there was the lower half of a rabbit, a few paws, intestines were spread across the floor and there was an awful lot of blood.
Also, apparently there was blood splatter up the cupboards and a piece of intestine hanging off one cupboard.
Ollie usually kills things, no doubt about that but this time he butchered it.
Oh and apparently there were drag marks in blood from where he obviously dragged the body around a bit.
He may be middle aged (he turns 10 years old in May) but he's still got it.
A recent picture of the blood thirsty killer.

Anyone else's cat do this? As in not just killing but butchering?Last edited by thunder_chunky; 18-03-2012 at 12:27. -

You sound impressed, do you enjoy cleaning it up then?
In that puc he's in what we call "teacosie mode."

Re: My cats still got it.How about squrrels? My cats quite big boned but he can catch squrrels. I first realised when I found a decapitated squrrel he'd kindly left for me.(Original post by Claudine)

Re: Cats and huntingI've never seen him catch a squirrel, but I guess that doesnt mean that he's never caught one(Original post by thunder_chunky)

Re: Cats and huntingDo you know why that is? I just assumed all cats were awesome hunters.(Original post by xXxBaby-BooxXx)
My cats, between 3 of them over about 6 years, have managed to catch 2 birds. Just 2.
And I am so grateful that they are such crappy hunters
