Today my cat killed 2 mice and 2 shrews before lunchtime. He's upped his game from one a day over the last week.

@Feek can we have a poll? "Is your cat a crazed killer?" Options: A kill a day, a kill a week, a kill a month, vegan.
 
I have two. They average a couple a month each I'd say. Sometimes they go bananas and do like 10 a week. They do eat things though, so probably catch more than I know. Sometimes we go weeks or even months with nothing.

The male cat brings things back alive. The biggest live prey was a magpie. He was fun. Very unhappy with proceedings. Once I got the cat away from it, he walked out of the front door giving me side eyes. No idea how he got dragged through the catflap.
 
I'd rather that then what my cats used to do, just catch them and release them alive in the house.

Yep. New Years day this year, after about 3 hours sleep and still drunk, I awoke to my cat releasing a thrush about 2ft away from my face. I had to spend about 2 hours catching the thing. It got wedged behind some shelves in my office.

He really can be ****er sometimes.
 
I have 2 cats, one seems to love frogs and always brings them in fully alive just hanging by a leg, i always catch them and let them go, the other is scared of his own shadow so he does nothing.
 
Reading this while one of my cats is gobbling something on the lawn.

Had a range of stuff over the years, most notably an uncooked baguette, a whole pheasant (must have been roadkill) and a chicken.
 
Dusty my black cat catches leaves and the odd fly. Daisy the tabby is just greedy and wants food constantly and begs for food like a dog, she too would never kill anything bigger than a small spider.
 
A couple a week. Damn thing. Yesterday a bird flew into one of the windows and fell to the floor stunned, only for Squeaky to grab it and run off. I'm assuming it got ate.
 
At the end of my street, about 50 yards from my house, are the grassy and overgrown banks of a decent sized river. The little 'presents' my cat used to bring home were countless.
