Let me just say that there's nothing quite like starting the morning by stepping on a mouse haunch.  >.< 

Why, oh, why, if my cats gobble down half a can each at every meal and then beg for crunchies, why can they not finish a whole mouse?  It's not like they were saving it for later, either, not if they just left it on the bathroom floor.  *sigh*

On the other hand, your day can only get better, right? But still... blech

One would hope, yes!

Ugh...I'm guessing it was not a chocolate mouse?

*snerk* If only! Though it still wouldn't be much use after I'd stepped on it.

Aw, how sweet! Kitties are leaving a little something for Big Mom Kitty. Ok, maybe they could pick a better present for you but it's the thought that counts, right?

I have this Beanie Baby rat that someone gave me several years ago. Well, Tucker, the 12lb kitten, has decided to leave that as a gift for me so every morning I find it in, on, or by my slippers. I do have to say that I'm kinda grateful my gift isn't real.

Hee! I'd settle for that, definitely! Maybe if I left out the stuffed guinea pig?

They're just giving you the bits that they DON'T want!

I'm beginning to suspect so, yes!

We had a cat that would leave whole (but tiny) mice in my husband's (enormous) shoe. Most people shake their shoes and a pebble drops out...

I had a cat in college that got out (all of my cats have been indoor cats) and when he came back left an entire crow spread out in front of the door.

WOW. O_O Now THAT's a hunter. I wouldn't want to tackle one of those myself!

Perhaps they only eat the pretty end?

Bwahahahaha!

I am not engaging them in a discussion of mousie aesthetics, not at this stage...

It is possible that they left you the meatiest bits because, you know, you need your strengh for opening the treat package...

>:D

Silver might make the connection, at that...

They are being good providers and sharing... I'm thankful my one cat that insists on going out side doesn't bring us any presents. He's too self absorbed to be a good provider. *snort*

Heh, are you kidding? They don't even share with each other--this is just leftovers. At least it wasn't too squishy.

LOL. Cat's are just gross when it comes to that. Would be nice if they were a little less, "helpful".

Ah well, I suppose then they wouldn't be cats!
