My cat does the same thing every time he finds a mouse, unless we interrupt him before he can kill it, then he gets quite cross with us.
He usually doesn't play with them, so if we get to it in time, it's often uninjured and we try to catch and release outside. If it's hurt, we give it a quick end so it's not suffering
How do you give it a quick end? Our guy is a masochist and likes to watch them suffer.
usually, put it in a bag and hit it over the head with something.. sounds violent, but it's faster than what the cat wants to do at least.
