So....I've actually fed off a few extra mice to the cats, and they seem to really really like it. One of my bottle-children, who has never seen a live mouse in his life, has become fiercely predatory
fought quite savagely to defend his kill from the curious onlookers.
Oh, and in case you're wondering, I don't let them play and torment the mouse...if they don't kill it immediately, it goes to a snake. I have one cat who chases them, but doesn't seem to know how to kill them and he doesn't get to play anymore.
