    Hi, cat loving people. Since you love cats, I think you will understand me. I was sleeping last night and I suddenly woke up. My beautiful, crazy and joyful cat decided to catch a mouse and bring it to the bed with me. The little mouse was trying to escape but it couldn't. I am apprehensive and don't want to fall asleep because I don't want to wake up with another mouse on my bed. I have had mouse pets but they slept in their cages. Can I trust my cat again?

    Wow Mariangel43! I have had one of mine bring in a mouse, but not into my bed.... At one point, my husband let the same cat in from outside not realizing she had something in her mouth. Once in she let a wren loose...lol. I had loads of fun catching the poor little petrified bird!

    Mariangel: I have cats who've presented me with gifts....but in bed with me? I'd be shrieking too. Also levitating.

    The real Scrunch the Cat once brought me a mouse while I lay sleeping. I woke up in the middle of the night because he was attacking something on the bed. Fortunately (or not so) the mouse was dead.

    If kitty can get ahold of it, kitty is going to keep bringing you presents, sometimes when you sleep. On a separate occasion I came home to a "gift" of half a mouse in front of the door. You can close your door at night if you think it's a problem.

    Our cat was using the window to go in and out at night - until the night I heard squeaking as she came in. After that the window was closed. Same cat killed a snake and gave it to my son.

    I'd be more concerned about having mice in the house getting into and damaging things. Good kitty for catching it.

    What is it about boxes and cats?! We had a 22 lb cat (no he wasn't considered fat by the vet, he was big boned) who thought he could fix in women's shoe boxes.

    We had a kitty at the shelter who loved her cardboard box. She was in an individual room with lots of places to sleep up high on the wall or hiding in a cube you could sit on. Nope, wanted the cardboard box. People enjoyed seeing her there.
