    My cat once brought me a frog. He was an indoor cat and we were on the 2nd floor. I do not know where the frog came from.

    My cat is great at catching spiders. There are however a few caveats:

    1. Spiders must be sufficiently enormous to be fun. Somewhere between “Oh lawd he coming” and Shelob.

    2. Spider catching only happens at night, and only in the bedroom.

    3. Cat will make a few chirping noises to alert us that a spider is being hunted.

    4. All spiders must be delivered as gifts onto the chest or face of one of us.

    5. Note I only said great at ‘catching’. Delivered spiders are very much alive and very fucking irate about the current state of affairs.

        I legit just had to just let mine in the front door after she was flipping the weather strip for a good 15min, back door is wide open mind you and it’s the one she walked out of 30mins prior

        Some years ago when I was working for crap pay all the time, my cat learned to get attention when I’d run in to use the powder room. After that job was over, I could never shut the door to do my business while he was alive, for that reason.

    My cat brings frogs and shelobs too, but from outside.

    Sometimes also mouthfuls of ragweed from a pond, so he has a big green beard and he goes and gets more and piles it up next to me.

    The pond plants are fine.

    The fully alive animals that he then allows to roam free, not so much.

    Bonus memory: oh, Biz looks like he’s got a weird whisker twitch… get up close nope it’s half a giant spider fighting for freedom and vengeance. Spat it out on my lap. Extremely high pitch noises ensue.
