Comet killed a little fluffy baby bunny this mourning... I yelled at her & she ran.
Should I kill her now?
Or just poke her with forks to show her it doesn't feel nice?

Okay, seriously, it just pisses me off a little. But if I went outside & found HER little head ripped off, my sense of loss would be balanced by the idea that, hey, it's not like SHE hasn't done that to other creatures...

Cat Community ATTACK!!!

Go Comet! Bunnies is fast. That's impressive.

Cats are so top of the suburban food chain.

I was house sitting for my Dad once, and walked into the front yard to find a rabbit's head on the front step. A very long trail of intestines let me to the headless rabbit body, with the cat (who was smaller then the rabbit) happily nibbling at the bunny's stomach cavity.

Kitties can be f'n brutal.

Nature's way, yada yada. Quite often they'll bring back a little something for the pride to eat. That would be you. (Eww!)

Proper ettiquette if you don't want to accept the offering is to sit by the cat while he/she eats.

And yeah, an impressive kill, though a bit excessive (really no need for decapitation/dismembering. A snapped neck is cleaner and just as fatal).

Really? That might explain some of my cat's weirdness.

She's good about just grazing and not over eating. So, I just have big old food dispenser full of food for her. However, she'll often times all out sprint over to her food dish when I'm near by and meow at me like crazy. If I pet her she starts chowing down and purring like crazy. If I ignore her she just walks back and forth in front of the food.

She will eat on her own of course, but she seems really happy if I'm right by her while she eats.

Chris, before you go to war against your cat, realize this: You NEVER win a war with a cat, at least not without killing the cat. He's more devious than you, and far more patient. He WILL poop in your shoe. Can you do the same to him? No; no you cannot.


I say that whilst in the middle of being in a state of war with one of my cats. We'll work it out, but only after I apologize, I'm sure. Meanwhile, I get onto him, and he does evil shit while I'm not home.

Your cat killed a bunny. Be glad it wasn't YOU that he killed. 'Cause you know he's thought about it.

There's just no room for things like 'fluffy' in the animal world Big 'C'. 'Tis pretty cruel out there. You ever see the way some of those wilderbeast are taken down by lions in the Serengeti! That stuff is brutal and difficult to watch... and lets face it domestic cats are still Cats. The instincts are still there.... Comet is merely doing what she was programmed to do.

By the way Chris. Cool name for a cat :D
