    @HighlandLawyer @cstross Better than leaving it where you’ll step on it, like when stepping out of the shower.

    I had this one particularly stupid cat who kept trying to teach me to hunt by bringing me a live earthworm every morning.

    You do not want to wake up by treading barefoot on a live earthworm on your way to the bathroom.

      @cstross @HighlandLawyer When I stepped out pf the shower it was just the mouse’s ribs and a rear leg. A little later I found my cat Sabra had left a gutted mouse in another room.

        Listen, I fail to see what's romantic about thrusting a bundle of severed hermaphrodite genitalia at your love interest. They may be collected from sessile photoautotrophs as a traditional human invitation to copulation but it's somewhere on the same continuum as a gift of disemboweled rodents from your pet cat.

        @cstross No kink shaming. Some people like rotting plant genitalia.

            I am not sure how a cat can get a whole, full grown (deceased) rabbit through a cat flap, but apparently consuming it in the scullery is sometimes preferable to doing so in the fields or garden.

            Perils of rural life.

              @cstross Quite a few of those severed genitalia can be a bit tricky with a cat in the house too.

              I mean I was under strict instructions to never ever bring lilies anyway…

                  You are clearly a romantic.

                  And an intellectual.

                    @cstross but. but. disemboweled rodents are one of the best ways to show love and care for somebody!

                    together with releasing an alive but weakened rodent in such a way that they can have the pleasure to hunt it themselves, of course

                        OK, but "Amputated zombie plant genitals" probably would've been awkward.

                          @HighlandLawyer @cstross Yep. Once when house/cat-sitting I found the cat outside the back door straddling the headless body of a young rabbit, licking at the stump. I could have done without that.

                              @JdeBP @cstross @jmax To paraphrase Jack Handey: if potatoes could scream, would we be so cavalier about boiling them? We might be, if they screamed all the time.

                                  @JdeBP @jmax @cstross this is why Jainism has the actual most humane diet. They worked out all this shit centuries ago.

                                      @cstross @valkenberg I steal flowers for R in the spring. He's never given flowers, and plans never to 😂

                                      Still, severed plant genitals are better than severed heads, no?
