Title: Moritz - the killer
Post by: tux_linux on June 25, 2011, 06:08:31 pm: I have to feed the cat more.
Moritz just brought home a mouse - still kind of alive. I went to the kitchen to get a plastic bag - when I came back there was just half the mouse left. Strange enough no blood on the floor.
That was mouse #5 this week - not counting the ones he doesn't bring home.

I'm thinking of some kind of a warning sign. Suggestions please!

The house cat. The biggest killer of them all!
Nice Kitty!

...not really. It's a suburban house cat. But I think hunting is in their instinct.

I have one myself:

The squares on the right will be painted with chalk board color. Now Moritz the cat needs to learn how to make a mark there when he brings something home ;D

She was asleep in bed one morning when the cat brought her a present and dropped 1/2 a mouse on her chest. Funny, she didn't seem all that grateful for the gift!
