My cat brings mice in all the time. The last one ended up inside our vacuum cleaner. Had to take the whole darn thing apart.
Cats and heat. LOL! My cat is sucked in like a magnet to any spot where a human being has been sitting.
My mom got a card from a friend a while back; showed a cat on the living room floor in several frames where the light through the window moved with the time of day - each frame, the cat was right on the light spot. Then, the last 2 frames, the light was on the wall. In the very last frame, the cat was asleep on the wall! Pretty darn funny.
