Caution: hunting in progress
Boyfie is hunting again. He hasn't done it much since KFC passed away.
He brought me a very small mouse last night and then 15 minutes later he came in with a twig and leaves in his mouth wowling (there was a small mouse in there) I do not want him to find a nest of small fieldmice but I don't want to discourage him about the small rats. He was out most of the night looking for another one so I went to bed at 3 a.m when he was still out. I like to have him inside by 12. |

I know exactly what you mean about them killing the field mice but I don't know what you can do to persuade him to only get the small rats. I can't Sootie loves to catch mice and I've had to harden myself to leave her with one on the patio as I couldn't save it. I have saved quite a few though. When she's on a hunt she won't come inside and I have to leave her out all night, which I really don't like to do. If Sootie is on a hunting spree, like Boyfie, you'll have to leave her out. I stayed up until 3 last night to get him to come in but he was too excited by his kills and wanted to try for another. I have been tired all day. |

Boyfie was very happy this morning. I won't point out to him that they were an inch and a half long and had probably just got out of the nest at 3 weeks old. He says he is training himself for the big rats. Yeah. |
