I always congratulate my kitty when she catches something.

When my cat brings a hunt, he just wants someone there to appreciate it before it eats it. His post-hunt purr is glorious.

AstronautChicken

Coz chicken tastes better that's why

Our new condo has mice and I keep telling my cat he needs to do a good job killing them when we move in. Hunting is what cats do.
Boopbeepbeep
My cat was a prolific hunter. I live in the hills & after he died, my neighbors have said they miss how he kept our properties free of rats.
keyonne
My cats is a shitty hunter. She’d die in the wild.
lurkvoter
My last cat was like that. She was disinterested in prey or the outside - she once got out and didn't explore at all, just hid by the door.
iSoulend
someone I know have 3 cats, and once there was a mouse in the kitchen, one cat just walked out to an other room, the other two just watched
CarmenElizabethJuanitaAcostaBravoCortez
I always took the kill my cats would bring to me and go to a corner and pretend to eat it then give them belly rubs after then throw it out
LadyIJustWorkHere
Weird, but communicative.

I didn't wanna offend my children, they worked so hard to "keep me fed"

Chickens are for eating and most other birds aren't
MaxweIIhaus
All things are edible. Some things are only edible once.
IAmJohnnyP
That is quitter talk.
Sobostio
Bitch I'll eat a bird! You don't know me!!
addi09
This sounds like something a dumb little white girl would say
bunny808
Sorry you have a problem with white girls
addi09
That's def something a white girl would say XD
bunny808
Wow, did a white girl dump you or something?
addi09
No you're just super white haha
lurkvoter
Not if you're a cat.
Somanyquestions
I mean, Emus are probably not a goodo idea for a cat to hunt.
MaxweIIhaus
They did beat Australia in a war.
lurkvoter
Haha, true, although a lot of cats would probably disagree with you and still try.
Phil1nj
Turkeys? Ducks? Pheasants? Geese? Quails? Etc
bunny808
Most others...there's a crap ton of birds in the world
ArtArchive
You got downvoted, but most people wouldn't even think of touching pigeon, crow, mockingbird, sparrow, hummingbird, etc.
DeadDoggy
I'd eat a hummingbird, you dont know me.
MaxweIIhaus
And all of them are edible. Most more than once.
bunny808
I never said you couldn't eat them...
DurtyShmexy
Fun fact: when a cat brings you a bird, they think youre too weak to do your own hunting. When you throw it away, they think youre retarded.
3654798521
so... have an army of cats for the zombie apocalypse?
TotallyNotASpider
To be fair it is pretty retarded to throw a cat away, they are like boomerangs they'll just come back
LlamaEaters
That wasn't fun at all
twocatsgluedbacktobacktodefyphysics
Sounds like you're a cat

Short version: Cats think everyone else is retarded.
SleeperXib
So like us.
callMeJohnTitor
nope. they just bring the pray to safety and then decide thar cat food tastes better and abandon it
IComeWithWifi
Bloody this! It's their food/toy to torture and just want to enjoy it indoors in the warm and dry!
BooksBooksBooksBooksBooks
Should.... should I eat it instead? I don't want my cat to think I'm retarded!
disgr4ce
Wasn't this popular 'fact' debunked?
Garouleloup
No, it's on the internet so it's true.
CheshiresShadow
Ok but like cats are lazy assholes themselves that get fed all the time. Wouldnt it just be the cat returning the favor by bringing food?
CyberAkuma
It depends, it can be either that, or a gift as a sign of affection.
shiftingillusion
It's a gift because they respect you.
THRAWN18
Mine doesn't bring them. She instead will murder it in front of me, then eat it because she thinks she's protecting me from a threat.
THRAWN18
My other cat sometimes will get in these moods and hiss and attack me. She will get between us and protect me from him by fighting him off
THRAWN18
I don't need the protection, but she feels she needs to do it. Even when he returns to normal, she'll sometimes just observe him near by
TheGirlWhoCouldNotEven
My cat has brought me live birds on a few occasions. As much as i appreciated that she doesn’t think I’m useless i would like for it to stop

So if I go out and kill a bunch of songbirds in my yard, my cat will stop bringing me dead prizes?
TeamAmericaWorldPolice
I purchased a run-down building downtown in my hometown and got 2 cats to help keep the rodents away. When they were young they could 1/
TeamAmericaWorldPolice
catch a mouse bud didn't know how to kill it, so I killed it for them and dropped it in a bucket by the back door. a couple times a year 2/
TeamAmericaWorldPolice
I'll find a dead mouse at the back door. They have the instincts, but you need to teach them in their own language.
OneShot510
You'll probably have to kill them bare handed so the cat sees you catching them and knows you're capable of feeding yourself.
ThatShiftyMonkey
Whelp, I know how I'm gonna spend my afternoon.
Carwyn
Cat's aren't stupid, they know we're able to get food our own food. Dead birds and mice is their way of showing gratitude for feeding them.
Majkara
They aren't humans dude, they don't have same range of emotions. Or same kind of way to think this stuff out.
jhlongm
But at the same time, they watch us eat alllll the time. Or do they not know what eating is? Not being sarcastic, actually wondering.
AFelineMassofEyes
Then we can't assume they think we can't hunt.
Magpiebones
Gratitude isn't something they are able to feel. It's really hunting for a "pack member". Cats also like to sniff our breaths to check 1/2
Magpiebones
if we are starving or not, just like they do to each other. 2/2

Magpiebones
It takes higher understanding of self and ability to understand that kind of self exists in others too. It's currently uncertain if even 1/2
Roehcai
It's not as complex as humans, cats can express gratitude. I've seen them come over and snuggle with someone who just gave them a treat.
Magpiebones
our cousin species or dolphins can experience that. Cats just view life differently, nothing bad in that. They sure feel happiness. 2/2
iSoulend
so really, we're insulting them if we throw it away ?
LikeCouldYouNot
Yes, you must eat the offerings to show them you accept their gratitude
CyberAkuma
It's considered best to accept it, and then toss it away in secret.
vauhtihirmu
That might encourage them though, so be careful.
Killbot900
But is that a bad thing if you are trying to keep mice out of your house? (Assuming you have a mouse problem)
moonshadowkati
Sauce?
HeroOfOakvale
What kind? I have BBQ and Honey Mustard.
damnyuoautocorrect
Ooh, both please
damnyuoautocorrect
Ya know, Im a cook and it surprises me how little people order bbq and hm with their chicken tenders. Am i crazy here? Classic combo...
LVL80CatLady
this is the first site on google https://www.livescience.com/34471-cats-dead-animals.html It's a fairly well known catfact. trust me^
AFelineMassofEyes
I find the commentary more credible than the article.
moonshadowkati
That says the cat is trying to teach you, as it would its young. That's fairly different from believing you are infirm.
LVL80CatLady
I think the "they think you're stupid" should be taken with a grain of salt, but they're still trying to teach you to hunt/eat.
moonshadowkati
That makes more sense. My cat used to bring me rodents, and I could buy that she was trying to teach me, but not that I seemed less fit atm.
