    They’re just trying to teach their human to hunt. First step is to demonstrate that the mouse is food. Diva is clearly just getting frustrated with how slow a learner the human is.

      I don’t think it’s due to frustration. Like how a caring parent observes their child’s mental level and caters to that. Pure love and the hope to spark joy in new things. Also, yuuuuuuck.

    Get yourself to a doctor immediately. Get tested for Hanta virus or whatever else could kill you in your country. Don’t wait!

        It’s more likely to affect elderly or immunocompromised people. A second of exposure isn’t too likely to cause it.

            That makes sense. I don’t think rodents like hot, dry areas either.

    I remember petting what I thought was my cat’s paw in the early morning hours once. Nope. She just left a mouse head on my pillow.

    Why is it a problem when a cat drops a mouse into the mouth of another cat?

    What’s the problem? Do cats not usually give mice to their moms or not in their mouths or what?

      this is probably one of those crazy people who think the cat is their child and they’re the mum or something

        Someone called me a cat dad and it sounded so weird to me. I like to think that my cats view me as “big friend”. I’m no father, more of a guardian who wants what’s best for my silly creatures and would die for them if it came down to it, but certainly not a father, no siree.
