My cat has turned into a murderer. For the last week, he’s been going out and bagging 1-2 wild animals per day; mostly rabbits, but some voles and a finch too.
It’s really wrecking my head. I don’t have the nuts to kill a half-dead rabbit in cold blood, so I wind up leaving them in the bushes to die; and I’m sure that’s exactly what happens to most of ’em. The other day I had to fish out a dead baby rabbit, put it in a plastic bag, and dump it in the bin.
Maybe I should leave them out for the hawks. There’s a pretty big peregrine and red-tailed hawk population around here.
Alternatively, maybe some cat
transformation sets would help… at least around the house: ‘The cat
which became a hood figure is likely to have a broom at any moment, and is
likely to begin cleaning.’
