    ASF's and cats
    Let me tell you - I am so glad that I have a kitty who is a mouser at heart! ASF's "boing" if you aren't careful when trying to feed them off, and I've had quite a few "boing" right on out of the tub and take off.

    Thanks to my ever vigilant hunter, they don't get very far, because she is on them like white on rice! I just had this happen last night, and within 5 seconds, the escapee was caught in her jaws (unharmed, I might add).

    I don't know what I would do if I didn't have her - I know I'd be spending up to an hour trying to catch one of them on my own.

    Do any of you have any mousers to help you with the escapees?

    Here she is - bugging Diamond while she's eating, of course:

    Well, mine isn't a cat so I won't post the picture. But my little Miniature Pinscher Sage is my rat/mouse hunter/catcher. Of course it is in her breeding. :rat::mouse2::dog:

    Oh Robin she's growing up into such a lovely cat!

    So far are only rodent escapees are immediately caught by yours truly. Apparently for an old broad I'm quite the mouser! :D

    Mya our female cat does like to sit and stare at the rodents but it seems to be more like somebody watching tv than any kind of predatory posture. She really acts like a predator around the goldfish tank but hey they aren't likely to jump out and race off to hide under the fridge so not much use of that is there. :rolleyes:

    Yeah. My cat has been a life saver iN catching escapees. She decapitated one and. Left the head in one room and the body in another. She's also helped me locate a few loose ones.

    She doesn't hunt normal rats at all. We had a jumbo loose in the house for over two weeks and she didn't sense anything.

    Here's my one-man 'must obliterate everything small and fuzzy' cleanup crew. Escaped mice/asf's, wild mice, squirrels, birds, possums, strange cats and any dog under 30lbs would do well not to cross his path. He's taken care of more than a few escaped hoppers for me.

    My german shepherd swallows them whole if they hit the ground. Same with the baby bunnies in the back yard.
