deep in her throat, when bird watching.

8. Salivating? Glad they are being kept indoors so no harm to the birds

Let them satisfy their predatory instincts as indoor mousers!

9. My family always used to refer to that as a cat "charming" birds.

These cute, fluffy little murderers are trying to lure them to their doom.
