3. Well, at least it was dead.
I spent one morning trying to chase Finches out the door flying all over my living room. No sooner did I get one out than kitty brought another one in before I had a chance to shut the door. The Finches flew away unharmed incidentally.

4. One of my dogs used to
eat the squirrel outside...unbeknownst to me....then come indoors and barf it up. Lovely.

At least this way you can pat your cat on the head to thank him, and dispose of the squirrel before it's half-digested.

5. Here's a link for great recipes with Squirrel
Your cat was just earning his keep with bringing dinner home for you. Cook it up and make a great stew!!!

8. aww
squirrels are cute. :(

Maybe it's because I've never had a cat, but cats are predators and shouldn't be outside if you're gonna have them as pets.

10. Mine used to bring home full grown Muskrats.
Calico was a killer for sure.

The funniest was when she brought the live snake home to teach her kittens how to hunt. Needless to say they weren't having anything to do with it.

13. The rabbits would end up as...
...a small pile of bunny guts on the doormat so that you would know she was doing her job.

14. crawfish
I used to have a cat that brought crawfish home. How the hell she got them from the irrigation ditch is still beyond me.
