My normally docile female cat has begun hunting and sometimes killing the wildlife in our garden. Nothing is off limits and frogs seem to be as popular as birds.
We have recently moved to the area and I'm wondering if she is picking up the habbit from other cats - my sister who lives a few doors up has the same problem with her cat, which brings home 'presents' almost every day. Since both cats have been playing together the character of mine has changed. I've tried keeping her in, however, this can only ever be a short-term measure.
This may seem trivial to some people, but I do not like animals suffering (they are not all dead when she brings them in) and although I know this is a basic characterstic, none of my previous cats have hunted to the same extent or ferocity.
