Bucky: Why don't you kill the rats you remove from houses? Mossy: I like chasing stuff. Can't chase dead stuff. Gotta keep stuff alive. Bucky: Well, I don't like it. I kill stuff. Mossy: In my experience, cats talk about killing stuff all of the time and actually kill stuff none of the time. Bucky: Look, pal, if I dug up all the stuff I've killed and laid them end to end, you know what I'd get? Mossy: Ostracized socially? Satchel: Ha ha! Cats are weird.

My wife and I watched our 16-pound cat kill a rat that must have weighed at least that much.He sighted the critter running full speed across the room, flew down from his window ledge, stopped the rat’s forward motion by landing with his right forefoot directly in front of the rat’s nose, hooked him in the back of the neck with his left, lifted rat’s neck up to his mouth, took one bite and that critter was so dead he didn’t even twitch.The entire process — sighting to killing — took no more than three seconds. We had a lot more respect for our cat after watching that magnificent performance.
