The creulty of nature. Take my pet cat for example, Lily. She is more of a hunter over my other cat, Bertie. Anyway, Lily has caught countless birds over the 2 years i've had them. Many of these were baby birds, without feathers. Yesterday she caught a baby bird again, luckily this time she killed it.
But alot of the time she doesn't. If cats aren't taught by their mothers how to kill, they never learn how to. Either they kill it, or they just catch it and use it as a toy.
Like when she found the nest of rats, i know they are vermin and all, but they were tiny babies. Luckily with the rats she killed them, and ate them like she normally does since we limited the amount of meat that she can eat 'cause its unhealthy. Anyway i'm just rambling.
So, anyway although this process of animals killing each other is very necessary, does anyone find that it is so cruel? Especially when you have to pick up and bin the dead animals that your pets catch, or try and save them like i managed to do a few weeks ago.
