One of my conditions of Jupiter being and inside/outside cat is that he has a strict curfew. So at every night at 10.30 pm sharp I call him from the back door and prepare him a bowl of tasty cat food and fresh meat or chicken breast.
He came running in, rubbing round my legs and purring like mad. I put his bowl of cat food down and went back into the kitchen to get some chicken for Maverick. Looked down and Jupiter was still following me meowing.
So I followed him out to the conservatory, stopping to pat Maverick on the way. Big mistake!
When I looked up Jupiter was running towards me 100 mph flinging and batting something distinctively small, feathery and still alive.
I screamed and called my brother. By the time we had stopped screaming Jupiter had carried the (now dead) bird to the kitchen table and had presented it for us next to his cat food.
We think the roast chicken we had today for Sunday roast made him feel inferior as he had gone to the trouble of partially plucking the bluetit which was otherwise intact.
As much as i disagree with him killing creatures i was a little impressed that he had managed to bring it home and hadnt eaten it on the way.
