    My cats will just swat at the bug until it’s crippled and fuck off, leaving me to carry out the mercy kill. Little assholes.

    We have one of those electric fly swatters and one of our cats will join any hunt for an insect, but only eat it if it has been electro-fried to a crisp.

    We have a few that will play with them. Then we have our “starving” kitty who will just walk right up and eat any bug she sees on the ground.

      Honestly it’s the butterfly’s fault.

      Flies slow, huuuge compated to a fly, wings flap visibly and shimmer with colors. We couldn’t make a better cat toy if we tried.

    My doggo also hunts and destroys the “bad bugs.” I think he thinks he’s a cat, though. He expects to be worshipped, lol.
