Don\u2019t want to pluck out spikes after touching them.<\/p>\n<p>Our cats are really nice ones. If I sit on the couch watching television they always come and get cosy. They are still a bit scared of our kids and I think that might be wise if you don\u2019t want your tail to be pulled, especially when it comes to our son. They have decided that the couch is their favourite spot, most of the time (as long as the kids aren\u2019t too close) you\u2019ll find them like this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/files\/2015\/09\/F-2015-09-04-07-42-00.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-880\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/files\/2015\/09\/F-2015-09-04-07-42-00-1024x776.jpg\" alt=\"Milo and Siam in the couch\" width=\"584\" height=\"443\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/files\/2015\/09\/F-2015-09-04-07-42-00.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/files\/2015\/09\/F-2015-09-04-07-42-00-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/files\/2015\/09\/F-2015-09-04-07-42-00-396x300.jpg 396w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When our son is sleeping they actually come and lay beside him sometimes. That is nice. They are gone faster than a lightning when he wakes up though.<\/p>\n<p>They are really good hunters too. They from time to time (now a bit more seldom) come with \u201cgifts\u201d for us. Most of the rodents they catch they eat themselves. But they are a bit picky sometimes, leaving some intestines on the rug as a not so pleasant surprise walking to the shower in the dark in the mornings. Just the other day, (or maybe a week ago) they had left somethings that looked like intestines again, but this time it was no less than 6 mouse foetuses, four of which still in the uterus. I don\u2019t know why they didn\u2019t eat that, but as my brother has had a similar experience before it might be intentional.<\/p>\n<p>They really are a threat to the small animals around our house. We like them to kill the rodents, but sometimes they kill small birds too (and a rabbit) and that isn\u2019t really as nice. My brother saw Siam catch a bird that was trapped in our outdoor room. I just saw him walk away with the bird in his mouth. There still was one other bird in the outdoor room, panicking of course, so I opened a window and let it out before it would have been the next victim of the feline killing machines.<\/p>\n<div data-counters='true' data-style='square' data-size='small' data-url='https:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/2015\/09\/12\/wildlife-is-cruel\/' data-title='Wildlife is cruel' class='linksalpha_container linksalpha_app_3'><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='facebook' class='linksalpha_icon_facebook'><\/a><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='twitter' class='linksalpha_icon_twitter'><\/a><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='mail' class='linksalpha_icon_mail'><\/a><\/div><div data-position='' data-url='https:\/\/blog.wolfmaier.se\/wolfie217\/2015\/09\/12\/wildlife-is-cruel\/' data-title='Wildlife is cruel' class='linksalpha_container linksalpha_app_7'><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='facebook' class='linksalpha_icon_facebook'><\/a><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='twitter' class='linksalpha_icon_twitter'><\/a><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='googleplus' class='linksalpha_icon_googleplus'><\/a><a href='\/\/www.linksalpha.com\/share?network='mail' class='linksalpha_icon_mail'><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One night we forgot to close the screen doors of our outdoor room.
