I wish mine would eat various moist critters. A couple of my cats used to try and hunt mice and were successful a few times, but now they are just lazy. I've bee trying to get them to try mice again but it will be a long process. My ferrets on the other hand go nuts over whole prey items. Just last night Twitch helped me flush out a loose mouse and as her reward for helping me catch it, she got to kill and eat it.
