Why do pets have to do these horrible things?!!!  | | Here's a quick scenario: I'm in the basement, on the computer (on MyLot) - and my cat Dainty is meowing at the window. I was assuming it was because she wanted to come in (because it IS a little rainy outside right now, and as we know cats don't usually like rain..and Dainty is no exception). So, trying to be nice - I call for her at the upstairs door for her to come in - and when she doesn't come, I go walk over to where she is..And I see that she has brought a bunny to the window. Who is now dead. She was bringing me a dead bunny.
I wish cats would understand that we are not like them. We don't take dead bunnies as "gifts" and we don't like when they bring them to us. They are not considered, to humans, as "peace offerings".
This makes me incredibly sad, mainly for the bunny. I yelled at Dainty, although she's a cat..so she probably just doesn't GET it.
I guess this is just one of the ways humans & cats are different.
Has this happened to you lately? Or do you have your own pet-related rant to share with me? Thanks for listening (or, umm, reading I guess. lol).

| | 2. aminul8427 (1231) | 4 months ago | Hi Maezee! Your cat has done a unusual thing as you believe. But it is very common to them. By nature they are bituated to catch mouse/rat, small birds, insects and sometimes eat them. The pets have no sense as like as human being. So you should not be unhappy with some activities of your cat. Have a nice day.

| | 3. Hatley (20310) | 4 months ago | oh yes and I really really disliked this pastor too so i'think the dog knew that.anyway the seventhday adventist nastynice pastor came to' make a pastoral visit. He had replaced the pastor we both loved.He stickup his nose at my old furniture and sat on the edge of the chair,his narrow nose sort of lifted. My dog Pat dug into the debris from the fireplace and,of all things to evenbe inthere, she came out carrying A dog turd,yes a dog turd. I was embarassed for myself and upset that my husband had tried to burn a dog turd in the fireplace.'anyway mydog Pat went to the Pastor and laid the burnt turd in his lap. Ihave never seen Anyone as plump as that man was move so fast.as he dumped the offending turd, and opened the front door, And left. My husband erupted into male laughter while I cried then ended' up laughing like crazy.

| | 4. sunnysmiles (642) | 4 months ago | I shudder when my friends cat keeps bringing dead mice and birds home! I don't like it but that is the cat's nature. It will purpsoefully sit in her tree in the garden and wait for the little baby birds that are not so good at flying to come along and then pounce. The cat takes them indoors and deposits them on the carpet as if to say 'happy birthday' lol. Yet the cat next door to where I live never catches anything as it's just not interested. I suppose cats are all different just like us!

| | 5. sailor10 (630) | 4 months ago | I had a funny incident the other day . My labrador pup brought in a 10$ note and i was delighted.I went to my bank to deposit it but the cashier refused to accept the note saying it was counterfeit.I had a tough time getting out of the tough situation.
So the pets can be pests at times,beware.

| | 6. Raven1 (329) | 4 months ago | You cat brings you these gifts because she thinks you'll be impressed by her hunting. She doesn't know that you're grossed out by the dead bunny. She will also be very confused by being yelled at for doing something she thought was good.

maezee (4169) | 4 months ago | Yes! You're very much so right. I couldn't quite articulate it as nicely as you! And that's why I feel bad about yelling at her - because it's something that cats find acceptable whereas humans do not.

| | 7. jwfarrimond (2403) | 4 months ago | My cats are always bringing back "presents" - mice and birds are the usual things, I don't mind the mice, but I don't like them killing birds, but short of keeping them in all the time, and that's not going to happen as they are used to going outside and I'd have four sir-crazy cats if I tried to keep them in now, I'm afraid that the birds will just have to take their chances.
