Where's my rabbit surprise?

It's spring and my cats are "hunting wabbit". Woke up this morning and
the living room was covered in rabbit fur, but no sign of the
unfortunate owner of the fur. So far no sign of the corpse, though
Custer is looking smug, either because of he's full of fresh rabbit, or
because the corpse is still to be found.

I would be quite pleased if Boyfie brought me a rabbit so I could eat it
myself.
He killed a collared dove recently for the first time in years and ate it
himself. Pity that is, as I can make a nice casserole from a whole one but
not from two wings and one leg which he left me..

In the apartment block that my FIL lived in, they had a resident, Wesley,
cat who used to visit Dad (who was not a great animal lover but who
wouldn't hurt one) . one day Dad said to Wesley that as he was using his
sofa and heating he could at least bring him a rabbit for his tea. Two
days later Wesley turned up at Dad's door with a nice fresh dead wild
rabbit, Dad was very impressed but didn't eat it just in case.

In case of what? That rabbit would have been in my pot or oven within an
hour with some casserole veggies around it..

In case it had had an infection. Dad was a townee through and through.

Enough said.
If Boyfie ever brought a rabbit home (and he always brings his catches to
show me) it would be me that ate it.

Of course, I personally don't care for rabbit meat, but I agree with
your premise. Unless you prefer your rabbit rare (does anyone?),
thorough cooking should kill any resident salmonella (or e coli, or
other bacteria).

Wild rabbits, as far as I know don't have salmonella. I am very happy to
eat them.

Never did the find the rest of the rabbit, I can only assume that it
went inside Custer ;-)

Probably. Boyfie only left one leg and two wings from his collared dove.
If he caught a rabbit he might have left the long leg bones but other than
that he would have eaten everything. Fur, ears, skull.
It's how cats live if they are abandoned.
(Kitty taught him this) as they were both abandoned at some point in their
lives.
