Do Cats Eat Mice Or Just Play With Them. Second, the same way cats play with string or other cat toys has something to do with their predatory perception. This is actually for the best.
Why cats are attracted to mice. Basically, you need to make sure they’re fully fed before you allow them to play with the mouse. If my cats are full they are not very kind to the mouse and play with it but sometimes the mouse then gets away.
Just be sure not to let the rats operate any heavy machinery after they’ve devoured all the mice.
Third, it may be a dominance thing. We have a cat tyler who is well fed but spends a lot of time outside during the day and evening exploring and hunting. Coyotes will feed on cats. Whether cats eats mice they caught will depends to an extent on how hungry it is (versus how much an owner or neighbour feeds it), whether it learned to.
