Hi phamie30 - well done taking in Annie and taking the time and patience to get her to trust you. She is a lucky girl to have a caring home and is showing her appreciation by bringing you presents. There is nothing that I know of to get her to stop doing that - it's in her nature. |

I know it's horrible - I don't like my two bringing creatures in. It's shrews atm. I did see some gadget on the Net that warns of cat being around. I'll see if I can find it again and post the link if I do. Here it is! |

I've just read the reviews of that particular product and they are not good! But one reviewer did mention sewing about 8 bells to her cat's collar, which could be an alternative (and quite a bit cheaper too!) |

It's too ingrained in their nature; nothing really helps. Many experienced hunters can learn to stalk without making the bell ring; maybe eight would work ...??? It's not nice, but it's the way cats are. Bless you for taking her in and giving her a loving home. |
