Not sure, he's a wall fed cat, but he still kills birds and mice and eats them. kinda gross but I guess it's natural. plus I've never had a mouse get into my house yet with him around.

lol, when there was a mouse under our kitchen sink, my cat would get the door open under the sink and wait there till it came out, 6 months later, he still thinks there is a mouse there, and every night i hear him trying to get that door open, lol
