One is tempted to assume, there is nothing cuter than ones pet. This is certainly true for me (and my sweetheart) and our cat Lilly. Just have a look.
But one tends to forget, that they have a set of teeth, too. Which is still kind of cute, when exposed thus:
However, the cutest cutie still is a predator. Can’t be, one thinks, when cuddling up to that fuzzy furball of an evening. But when Lilly drags in her prey, things look slightly different.
What I can’t understand: she is such a picky eater. If her food is not made with tuna or other fish, she just won’t touch it. But any mouse or even insect she catches, she eats. Surely, such a little mouse from the field or a big green grasshopper can’t taste good, can they?
Maybe you are just making it too easy for her. Put her food in a kitty pinata and make her work for it. My cat has to stealthily bypass Dog Three in order to reach his bowl. Once there he licks it clean.

Our cat was a relentless predator, even after she lost her front claws. Hard wired, as tney say. But she kept mice out of the house, for which I was grateful.

Good cat! It’s just their nature, but we tend to forget this…
