I'm sure everyone with a pet has a great story or two =D
my family used to have a real hunter of a cat. One time we found 16 rats and a seagull wing carefully lined up on the lawn with the cat sitting by them. A seagull wing! I can barely remember it though as I was about four.
Please share your own great stories

Well I caught a fox, named it Ethan and it started using forums. It soon ran away and I never saw it again.

Also my cat Grace fetches sticks and stuff for me and can't hunt for ****. Garfield-style hunting skills. Would rather make friends with a rat than eat it. Lazy.

That cat really thought your family was incompetent, huh.

Well, one of our cats were rather into bullying our dog, and bullying us too. He would rodeo ride the dog, and he would trick us into his bear trap of sharp claws whenever he saw fit.
The dog was a different matter, he would come running if he heard the salad tray open.
Good times...

Then I moved out, so no pets for me.

Actually we live near the beach and there were a lot of rats there in the rocks.

Way back My mom once dated this guy who had a full set of dentures. Well one day my cat stole the guys dentures and ran all over the house while he tried to get them back from the cat. The cat with the dentures in her mouth looked like she had this big toothy grin the whole time.

It looked something like this.

My Sun Conure will often chase the current cat I have. One time the cat was trying to get away and the conure swooped down and grabbed hold of her tale. Flying in pace with the cats running while holding a firm grip on her tail until finally the cat was able to duck under a chair.

Still, it must think you are hugely incompetent. Those offerings are actually the cat's way of saying "Well, you can't hunt, so I will feed you so you don't die." So giving you the stuff instead of just killing it/ignoring it, it basically suggest your cat has no respect for your survival skills.

Okay, mine's the greatest, given that *greatest* here actually means *lamest*, brace yourselves.

So you see, I'm a man. This gender of mine often prove useful when going to the toilet for example; you know, we don't sit, we stand up.
So there I was, peeing leisurly with my bathroom door wide open because you know, I've my own apartment, when suddenly, I hear one of my cats starting to run. It didn't take long for him to reach the bathroom in a hurry and jump straight in the toilet while I was doing my thing. Yep: straight into my pee flow!

Results:
-Urine everywhere, including me and my cat; in fact I literally urinated on him.
-The satisfaction to have done so, given that satisfaction here means IRE!!
-A very useful lesson about always closing the door when going to the toilets.

That WILL be all for today, thank you.

my cat once brought in a live blue-J, when i got home from school i opened the door and from the fan 12 feet off the floor it swooped down and almost hit me.

we ended up catching it in a net and letting it go

Crap. Isn't there any way you can post images on one side, and post text on the other side? It would be helpful if someone would enlighten me about it. Thanks. and here's the picture.

so I chase my dog and if I catch him he gets a hug. He doesnt like hugs so he runs and we make a game out of it. Often when we do this he often looses his direction and sometimes hits a wall or runs into a door that is closed because he thought it was open. I would think this would bother him, but it does. He doesnt get hurt easily I guess.

It's not a display of disrespect at all. Cats who live in social groups will often bring food back for everyone. It's really more like saying "I like you, here's a gift."

I use to have a bug collection with dead bugs pinned and labeled on a board. My first cat actually helped me out she would bring me bugs and was always careful not to damage them.

It also doesn't make sense as cats have a natural urge to hunt, and some less than others. We bought it and trained it to keep the rats away.

we had two black cats, one was sebastian, got him at the Humane society, and the other was Sadie, we got her from a box full of kittens in a Target parking lot. So they became friends. so one day we were sitting in the living room, Sebastian is a fully grown cat, Sadie was still a kitten. Sebastian was sitting i the moddle of the floor, Sadie was hiding under the Kitchen table in that "Preparing to pounce" state. so all of a sudden, Sadie runs out from the table, runs onto and jumps off sebastians back in a karate pose that looked something like this http://photos.yamamusha.free.fr/20050716231031_karate-cat.jpg
