Why do cats bring dead mice home? Come and have a look

Everyone knows that cats catching mice or some other small animals are their own skills, but now many pet cats raised by parents no longer have these skills, because they don’t have to worry about food and drink when they are born, and they don’t need to prey to survive. However, some cats still have these skills, and they often bring some dead bodies such as mice or insects home, which can’t help but worry parents. So why do cats bring these things home? What methods do we use to solve the problem that cats will never bring such things home again? Let’s learn about it together below.

1. Show off skills

Domestic cats don't have to worry about food or clothing, and they are likely to just show off their hunting skills to you. Some cats not only catch mice, but smaller birds and insects are their hunting targets. Therefore, if you have free-range cats, you are likely to see various animal corpses taken home.

2. Reserved food

Some cats may have been adopted by their owners from the rescue station. These cats used to live a wandering life and often had no meals after eating this meal. In order to adapt to this life, they developed the habit of reserved food to prevent food outages. For such cats, owners can fill their food in their food bowls. Generally speaking, healthy adult cats will control their appetite, so you don’t have to worry about them eating too much.

3. Be kind to you sincerely

may seem a bit incredible to you, but there are indeed cats who sincerely give you a "gift". In addition, some animal behaviorists believe that cats may also want to tell you that you need to start exercising hunting skills, otherwise how can you survive in the future? Of course, this is just a wishful thinking of a cat, but it is enough to prove that the cat has "true love" for you. If you don’t want to receive these gifts again, you can put a bell around the cat’s neck. When they hunt, the prey will quickly escape because of the ringtone. You no longer have to worry about various “surprises” at home!
