I bought live crickets today. Just 3. I wasn't sure what I would do with them, if the cats didn't have an interest. Turning them loose outside didn't come to mind, at the time of my purchase. Hey... it was a long night and an even longer day. lol
Anyway, I put them in the bathtub. Arrows, Roxy, and Lola played with them for a nano second and then ate them. The crunching sound was a bit of an eww factor for me.
The others missed out. I'll get more next time.
I assumed Arrows would be "in." He eats anything....with gusto. Roxy surprised me though. She usually does not go for any kind of texture change. Lola...I think she just went with the crowd.
