Cats. Oi.
Over the years Smudge has gifted me with various things... from birds and mice in varying states, (including, on one occasion, a duckling that was thankfully unhurt) to spiders and frogs.
Last night though, he really surprised me. And by surprised I mean 'Oh my fucking god, what's THAT?!'
It was, in fact, one of these:
A slow worm. (Which is actually a legless lizard, neither worm nor snake!) He carried the thing inside and dumped it in the living room while making that 'Look what I've got!' meow. Of course, once he'd done that he had no idea what to do with it. *Eyeroll*
I did the only thing I could... scooped it up in the dustpan and dumped it back in the garden! I *think* it was still alive. These things can be literally 'scared stiff.' It was bleeding though, so I'm really not sure.
