Apparently when they bring you their catch it means they're trying to teach you how to hunt - they don't have a high opinion of your ability to do it for yourself.

My old cat Gus used to bring his victims in through the doggy door. My little male Chihuahua likes to bring stuffed animals to bed with him. BAD combination. I was woke up late one night by a scream from my ex. The dog kept trying to jump up on the bed but couldn't make it because he had something in his mouth. She reached down & grabbed it and it was the back half of a rabbit...

Funny now, But not then... HA!
My dogs are bad about bringing thier yucky stuff inside too.
Deer legs, other stuff they cherish and gather from around...
Mickey came home with a very stinky hoof of some sort.

This is Oreo.
He is a very good mouser, as he does his job as country cat.
As a cat normally does, he brings his catch home.
I open the door to see his catch of the day on the porch...

I've had the same mornings...only it's at work, and it's a wild fox trying to feed me... or just showing off! haha :)

Super cool cat. Mine is black on top, white underneath with a milk mustache and no desire to go outside since he was a baby. He just got grease on his favorite toy(Mister Rat) and I have to find a new one. Cats bring home prey to give to you because they really like you. It is a present. Your kitty loves you...

Outdoorfunblonde, we had a cat, 'Tinsel', because it reminded us of Christmas tinsel for the tree. She brought a huge rat to the back door one morning. Really surprised my wife. The rat was probably a forth as large as the cat. We had seen the cat catch mice several times, but never killed them. She would hold them in her mouth so that only the tail was sticking out. She would turn it loose and run after it again and again until it got away. Never knew her to kill one. Still wonder if she killed the rat or found it dead. It was a fresh kill.
Speaking of surprises, one night I was awaken by something at the head of the bed, apparently climbing up the curtain. I didn't want to wake my wife. She would have freaked out. My first thought was a rat. I slowly reached down and picked up one of my big work boots. Then this huge 'rat' was crawling across the pillow and trying to get under the cover with me! I didn't want to mess up the bed, so I shoved it off the bed, and onto the floor. Just as I was about to bring the boot down on it, I flipped on the light. To my surprise, it was my daughter's hamster! (That would have been a disaster, if I had killed her pet!) Evidently the hamster got the latch unhooked and got out of the cage. A few days later we had to change the latch with different type because it got out a couple more times.
