So that was that noise! It reverberated round Big Ben on its way to me!
We had cats when I was growing up. Then there was the horrible business of them bringing things that werent dead (eg a pigeon!) We sometimes tried to rescue them, but that was always really difficult and the poor things got more and more stressed and probably died anyway.
Someone once said that a sign you were completely batty about your cat (or dog, I suppose), was when you congratulated it when it brought in some animal. As that's what the cat/dog wants you to do!!
Really horrid story (you have been warned!): someone I worked with went down to the kitchen in the early morning to get a cup of coffee, in her bare feet. She stood on a dead mouse that her cat had half eaten and got a foot covered in nasty stuff...
