Wink Why do cats eat mice?



Have you noticed that most cat toys look like mice? I wonder why cats love to chase mice so much? I know our cat will go crazy when she sees a mouse. I think she would do anything to catch it.

I'm guessing that chasing mice is just ingrained in a cat's dna. Even though our kitty has never spent a night outside fighting for food, something in her tells her to get a mouse. Funny!

I think the reason why cats eat mice is because they are in the same family as lions and tigers and cheetas who all kill animals to survive.
