They dont need conventional food, they then start eating anything. They ate any paper that was around (I actually found paper shredded in drawers), wires at the back of the PC, burrow into furniture and eat stuffing etc, theyll go into any kind of cupboard and have a go at a whole manner of things. They chomped their way through a canvas bag I had! They never ever ate my food though!!
Oh if it was only as easy as keeping all your food out the way to get rid of them
I sincererly hope you never get them cos youre in for one hell of a shock when you realise how hard they are to get shot of
Contact your local Cats Protection League and offer to foster one of the Feral Cats for a couple of weeks? That should take care of the problem and they pay for all costs....you might even end up keeping it :rotfl:
Funny enough I was never aware that mice would be like that. It's something I expect rats to do. I had pet mice and they were rather fragile and needed decent food to be healthy?0 -
