I just fed Mona a medium rat, and I swear it looked like a murder site after she was done! She hadn't eaten in about 3 weeks, due mostly to being in shed & rejecting a F/T meal... I guess she was really hungry tonight, because she was striking at the tub (and nearly my hand) before I could even get the rat inside.

She doesn't like being watched, so I left the room and immediately heard that awful SCREECH from the rat being killed. When I went to check on her a little later, she was still cruising around the tub (hungry?), and there was quite a scene on the newspaper... a puddle of blood, and some unidentifiable matter of various colors. Nothing was actually left of the rat, so I assume she took it down without a problem. But is this kind of thing normal? Was it just because of her extreme hunger and excitement? This is one reason I'd love to get her on F/T, but unfortunately she is being stubborn about that.
