I remember being horrified to learn that tomcats will kill kittens. I don't know if they could tell
whether the kittens were theirs or not, or whether they were eager for more procreation.
I commented once before on interesting peculiarity of tom's armamentarium, so won't repeat
except by PM.
Purrrr, Yeow, purrrr, Yeow!
You know One or the other bites off the head of the male, and one or the other eats the male could get you in a lot of trouble. I ain't sayin, I'm just sayin.
