Oliver Serves Himself Dinner (not for the squeamish) [View all]
This is Oliver. He has his own door and comes and goes as he pleases, although he prefers for me to be his door person.
Here is what I found on his plate. He put it there. I am sure he brought it in from the outdoors.
Of course I disposed of it immediately.
He complained for two days. He returned to his plate for dinner, saw his mouse wasn't there, and looked at me in disbelief.
Yes, I said, you should have refrigerated it. I wasn't about to.
For two days he intermittently paced around his plate, looking at it, staring at me. Like "I can't believe you would do that!"

Interesting that the cats have food in their bowls but still chase other animals.

If a species really enjoys the hunt, kill and dinner chances of survival are higher?

I don't think dogs are boring, but they are fairly predictable in most cases.
