    I have two cats and a bird.

    Buttercup is a budgie, and she's REALLY noisy.
    I have Leia, a grey tabby I got as a highschool graduation present, she's almost 11 now, and Orion, a very loving but moody siamese. She thinks she's a dog though, she follows us through the house, needs to be ON you, not next to you, runs to greet us at the door, needs to be pet a million times a day... just like a dog!

    When the kids were small we had almost every kind of rodent you can think of. Now it's just the two of us to serve as staff for a kitty I said could visit "only long enough to have those kittens, then they all go". I should have known better but I love her!

    Four indoor cats that help me with my quilting. All the time. They think they own the house. And two large birds. They both talk so they can tell me they do own the house. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    My cat is also partial to "helping" with yarn projects. I can deal with him curling up on the instructions (current project is pretty no-brainer), but when he insists on lying on the YARN.....

    Are they whole mice and lizards or do you get the leftovers? Le Snooz usually gives me the "parts" of mice and birds.

    I've gotten my share of "some assembly required" bird and rodent kits from various cats over the years.

    The really bad one was once in my teens. One of our cats trotted into the house with a LIVE SNAKE in his mouth AND LET IT LOOSE!!! (I'm very snake-phobic.) I don't think Smokey appreciated me screaming and climbing the furniture, or my grandfather catching the snake and chucking it back outside. (Our best guess on that stunt was he thought we were giant kittens who needed hunting lessons.)
