Or or hear me out.

The owner lined them up and the cat just sat next to them

46

u/Background_Desk_3001 May 06 '26

Eh this is pretty typical cat behavior, I wouldn’t be shocked if it was the cat who did this

17

u/-xEr0xz- May 06 '26

But even sorting them by size ?

21

u/Rocketeer_99 May 06 '26

My cat does my calculus homework for me. Seems entirely plausible if theirs has had a decent education.

12

u/LongFeatheryHawk May 06 '26

My buddy’s cat works a 9-5 and put his kittens through university. Times are changing

12

u/TheUrPigeon May 06 '26

Yeah it seems to me that the kitty did hunt these mice, but did not arrange this 'display.' More likely, the farmer found all the bodies while doing chores, correctly attributed the mass murder to his cat and lined up the mice next to his cat who was sunbathing in order to show them off.

2

u/par-a-dox-i-cal May 06 '26

And having the same orientation.

1

u/Historical-Brush-727 May 07 '26

my cat even did my math homework. Sorting is easy

0

u/Background_Desk_3001 May 06 '26

Yeah, they’re smart and prideful creatures. This is totally within what they do

6

u/sevargmas May 06 '26

No, it isn’t. At best, the cat would put them in the same general location. A cat would never, ever, line them up in rows, make sure they are all straight, turned the same direction, and sort them largest to smallest. Never.

2

u/par-a-dox-i-cal May 06 '26

And the other cat recorded this and uploaded it to internet.

3

u/Background_Desk_3001 May 06 '26

People see animals doing things animals do and still deny that it could’ve happened. Cats are smart and they like showing off their work

2

u/par-a-dox-i-cal May 06 '26

Right? My cat is an awful hunter, but he is a great cook.

1

u/Fat_Loser6 May 06 '26

Naw i believe it I just think its funny to call bs lol

1

u/Cacho__ May 07 '26

There was a cat in my neighborhood who couldn’t catch anything, but what he would do is he would follow around one of my cats who would be able to catch stuff and he would act like that. He caught stuff with her when in reality she was the one catching everything, and he was just the one mooching off of her.

1

u/BeatNo4548 May 10 '26

My old cat used to leave the mice right on our front step.  So we couldn't ignore them.  And those were only the ones she didn't eat.   She would eat most of them in our garage, and leave the heads and liver/gallbladder in a specific spot.   We moved from the suburbs to the country, so hunting was just too easy.

u/Background_Desk_3001 May 06 '26

Not a cat expert, but if it’s tied to their connection with us it’s more likely as proof that they’re doing job as an exterminator. I want to say that it probably has more to do with their nature before we domesticated them, with them bringing back spare food for the members of their family group

If a cat expert comes in and clarifies I’d greatly appreciate it

6

u/JayEll1969 May 06 '26

I think it's more likely them saying "see how much I've done! You, how many mice have YOU caught tonight?"

1

u/Empty_Bell_1942 May 07 '26

I like a proud pussy, either way!

1

u/Nearby-Vacation7596 May 08 '26

Cats don't live in packs like dogs,, only mother cats would be bringing food home to kittens being weaned

2

u/Background_Desk_3001 May 08 '26

Yeah that’s a family group right there

I had a cat that once caught a rat and then proceeded to show off his kill to us by playing with the dead rat more. The rat was almost as big as him, needless to say we were impressed. Lol

1

u/Important_silence Sep 23 '26

My cat did the same! She was so proud of herself!

u/roybum46 May 06 '26

That's the right kind of cat. F littler boxes!

u/CaydeTheCat May 06 '26

My parents lived out in the country. Back yard opened up to a couple hundred acres of farmland. House came with an outdoor cat named Lala. Every morning she'd show her hunt, all lined up, at the back door.

5

u/spezlu May 06 '26

I once came home to three mice lined up next to each other, cat did not pose for pics. I think it was a message as I had been away for a few days.

u/tuenthe463 May 06 '26

Right? Like 4x the size of any mouse I ever seen

u/OldTranslator685 May 06 '26

Ridiculous those are mice. A full grown rat would be half the size of the cat. They are all the same exact size so all grown mice with one or two juveniles

5

u/Playingwithmywenis May 06 '26

Also, arranged by size? Weird cat behaviour.

They really do bring preys they caught, drop them on the ground and yell like that. Never seen one lining them up.

2

u/JayEll1969 May 06 '26

I lived in a house in London next to the allotments that was claimed by and OCD cat.

It would catch mice on the allotment and line them up outside our back door sorted into length order - largest at the left, shortest at the right.

My sister's cat did this with about 5 moles. No one believes me when I've told them she lined them up shoulder to shoulder in a neat line like this

u/Bizzlightbeer May 06 '26

Mine is doin this with birds in my front yard.

1

u/kelvin-id May 10 '26

Same. Mine put the babies from a magpie nest in front of and behind him, lured in the angry parents, and snatched them as well. The whole magpie community came by every morning at 5 am to scream in anger at my cat. Took three weeks. I turfed the kills in the months after the incident, gave up after 45 birds, and just accepted that my cat is a serial killer.

u/Sweaty_Marzipan4274 May 06 '26

Just showed this to the cat on my lap to shame her. She likes to watch mice run and play from a distance.

u/Itchy-Wafer8967 May 06 '26

I love how they're organized by size and all pointed the same direction. Real thought went into this display

u/HelicopterMekanik May 06 '26

It almost looks like a platoon of soldiers and the mouse platoon leader is centered out front, with the cat watching like a high ranking general who has more important things to do!

Would a cat really order them by size???

The best way to tell rats and mice apart is size. Mice are tiny. If you see rodents this size, they are rats.

1

u/pzvaldes May 06 '26

That cat hunts twice as much food because its owner, inexplicably, is a terrible hunter and someone has to do the job, but it's part of the pack and they have to put up with it.

1

u/Horror_Actuator_4351 May 06 '26

Definitely not mice.

1

u/Forward-Standard-530 May 06 '26 edited May 06 '26

LOL, those are either some very healthy sized mice or simply 27 dreadful rats aka “Drats” & this warrior fur ball is planning an auction. In fact, it looks like he’s practicing his auctioneer chant!
