Kizzy has so far contented herself with small mice, voles and shrews - nothing the size of a full grown bunny!

Dylan is quite the hunter! Leia is indoors as you know, but did kill a quite large rat that had gotten in. Fortunately, she never eats them .........cat food comes in tins!!!

My first cat Shanti (a male) brought me home a half drowned kitten! She was about 5 weeks old and we managed to nurse her to health and kept her.

I once had a ginger tom, Rufus, and he brought in a hamster. Said Hammy was alive and well and totally unafraid of Rufus. Rufus was struggling to get through the cat flap backwards............ and then we both sat and looked at the Hamster.

Maybe rabbit pie will wait another year.

We had a dead pigeon dragged in through the cat-flap once.

Re: What's the largest prey your cats have brought in?


one of my previous cats... a tabby and white named John had a thing about removing the head of his prey .... the biggest thing he brought home was a seagull... minus its head of course... but then i suppuse seagulls are still considered as rats..... albeit ones with wings!

Erm well of mice, rats, bats, grass snakes, rabbits, voles, pigeons, ducks, ducklings, (both from the river flowing near our house), on a few occasions young hares, moles, moorehens, and on one occasion a pheasant (unmarked and I believe ended up as part of sunday lunch at my grandparents house!) so take your pick
