Oliver has started


Oliver came in with his first catch today. A poor wee birdie. I didnt know whether it was alive or not, then he let it go at the stairs and it started fluttering. I opened the front door and it fluttered and flew out. He was mad as hell, looking at me as tho to say 'why did you open that door'!!

Re: Oliver has started


It is sad isn't it? I hate it when birds get caught. Does Oliver wear a bell???

No he doesnt. I was thinking I might try to get him to wear a collar.

Re: Oliver has started


As Ive noted before, a clever cat can learn to stalk without ringing the bell. You could give it a try, but hunting is instinctive and cats will do it. Sad, but nature.
