She gets to eat MY sliced turkey everyday. I really use it just for the cats, and on a salad for me. I guess I didn't give her enough today, so she went after fresh bird meat.
(And know I'm just kidding, she did catch a bird once, and I really fussed at her. She also does mice and shrews, but I don't fuss about that. They only get to go outside when I lock the screen door open to carry in the groceries, and I use "let's get some treats" to lure them back inside.)"Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist."

You don't like mice and shrews? My cat Phoebe seemed to think they were quite tasty.SPMS diagnosed 1980. Avonex 2001-2004. Copaxone 2006-2009. Glatopa (glatiramer acetate = Copaxone) 12/20 - 3/19/24.Comment

Now I don't let them out long enough to do any hunting. So about the time I have the groceries put away, I go to the door, and both are lying on the front steps, ready to come in. Sometimes I have to crack the door open, and ask if they are ready for treats.
Once upon a time, in the early days is when Sam did her critter hunting. She always brought her catch to the front steps, just proud as she could be, wanting cat daddy to see what she had caught.
She never ate them, but they would shock out from being caught. That doesn't happen these days because they are out such a short time. The girl has settled down in her older age.
Right now, she is on one of the living room sofas, and Seven is on the bed with me. She is 15 now, and I hope she sets a record for the oldest cat. She has been my constant companion on this MS journey!
Needless to say, I love my cats!!!"Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist."

Truth to tell, Howie, Phoebe never caught a shrew or a mouse while I knew her. She was an indoor cat and didn't seem to mind it. But I think she would have enjoyed the occasional mouse.SPMS diagnosed 1980. Avonex 2001-2004. Copaxone 2006-2009. Glatopa (glatiramer acetate = Copaxone) 12/20 - 3/19/24.Comment

I enjoy the occasional mouse, but I don't let the cats see me eating it.

"Common tabby" according to the Vet but there was nothing common about him. He knew all my secrets!

And he passed them on to me, and I would be willing to keep them secret for a small fee......

I actually got online for an itty bit. Read all your jovial kitty kat stories. You made me smile.
Not having a good time. This week end I lost the power to stand on my own again. So sad, ready for dr kavorkian., I am.
Never going home unless I get rich and can afford a live in nurse/aide.
I don't think I'll type anything for awhile. I have nothing lite to say.
Sorry, I love you all and will continue to read, if you will have me.Love, Sally

Oh, Sally, I'm so sorry to read this! I don't know how large your home is. Could you move around in it, in a wheelchair? Maybe you'd have to rearrange furniture, or get rid of some of it, and have work done in a bathroom do you could get in there? Don't give up just yet. You keep working with the therapists, and take your time, but keep at it. In home, I use a wheelchair , have home health aides and visiting nurses. If I didn't have this stupid bedsore where I can't reach it, I could manage on my own here. In time perhaps you will be able to as well....I am not a doctor nor medical professional, and don't pretend to be one, here... :oComment

Sally, we would all be beyond sad if you went away. Please don't even consider leaving us.
