I have enjoyed everyone's post on this subject and kinda though the same as you .... either my cat is showing off/wants attention and/or is playing with his baby.
Creese walks around with one of his toy mice in his mouth - he just walks around from room to room meowing strangely. I have never had or seen another kitty that does this and I find it very funny!
First, since he is a male kitty, I thought he was bringing me a present, mocking that he caught his prey and wanted to show it off to me. But he doesn't drop it and he pays little attention to me when I talk to him about it. Sometimes he will drop it on the floor and just sit beside it for a little while. He has a favorite mouse he usually does this with, but I have seen him use other toy mice as well. He usually just walks around for about a minute or two, with it in his mouth and meowing. He looks like he wants to find a safe place to put it and I try to help, but he ignores me, ha ha.
Second, since he is a male kitty, I also thought about the baby thing, but could he have motherly instincts? I do call it his baby though!
I haven't tried to throw it to see how he reacts, so I will try that next time and post the results.
My cat Creese is so different from any cat I have ever had - he has a terrible water fetish and I have to keep his water bowl in the kitchen sink. Otherwise, he will play in it and spill water all over the floor - I have tried several times with the same results. He is fasinated by water. He used to purr, but I don't hear him do that any more. He used to kneed my hair and purr while he was doing it, but he stopped doing this after we moved. He has other weird habits too, like getting in the kitchen cabinets to take a nap. I love him to death, weirdness and all!!
