Yes, yes. I swear I saw a picture of a couple monitors tearing apart a big rat to eat it. I figured, well.. ok. One of my breeder rats had died and I gave it over to her, figuring she would get to tear it apart, enjoying eating and tearing it up.
Nooo, Moggie decides she is going to swallow it whole, DESPITE it being as large as her BODY. I took it by the tail, and she spat it back out, she had the head and shoulders down. She was grumpy about me taking her rat too. I cut the forequarters off and gave that to her, which she gulped down.
Don't they tear apart prey? Or is it only appropiate size prey?
I was going to stand right there to see if she tore at it, or tried swallowing it. Good thing. I'm not sure what she would have done.
