I'm not convinced mine were leaving gifts either, if only because none of them ever acknowledged the bed as mine not theirs. I think it was more like a kid bringing a favorite new toy to bed with them to play with some more. And then getting bored. As you said - yuck!

> Goodness! I guess I really do have lots of blessings to count! My cats have either been only in, or only out. I guess yours are both in and out?Some of my past homes have had indoor/outdoor rodents unfortunately. My current one happily does not. At least I'm happy about it. I think the cat is rather disappointed at the lack of playthings.
> I don't know what I'd have done if a cat left something like that on my bed :-). My former brother-in-law inherited a couple of cats when he married. There were some adjustment problems with the cats. He became convinced that the cats were trying to get rid of him, because they would leave hairballs on his pillow - never on hers. :-)
Ah. But is that proof that they don't like him? Or that they really really do? With cats you can never really be sure. (Actually they probably figured it was THEIR pillow.)
Hmm. Dogs. Hmmm.
