@Nifty-Chicken how is the result of the 3D-print?

Took 8:44 to complete using 268 grams of filament:

And so, this "box" is bolted atop this funnel? What box?got a pic of said cat photobombing the box?

It will go at the bottom of a box full of feed to funnel into a 4" pvc pipe feeder.

Well, the last few days with new-kitty (Caly) have been pretty interesting!

When we let her out of the cage on Saturday we didn't know if she was going to come back.

Well, not only did she stay in the open cage all day, but when we got back from dinner, she quickly came to meet us.

The last three nights since then, she's come to our bedroom outside door and called for some treats / attention. Even feeling super comfortable with walking into the bedroom and lying down!

That's all pretty terrific, but last night was my FAVORITE part of the experience of first-time-cat-owner so far:

Around 9:30 last night she came to the back door as usual asking for some treats. We spent a little time with her and she casually walked off.

The GF and I went back to watching TV...

... that is until a half hour later when we heard Cali meeowing like crazy. More than I ever had before (and she's pretty talkative). I was worried there was something wrong with her. She was loud and consistent!

The GF went out to check on her. A few minutes later I hear my GF say, "Oh my goodness... if that's what I think it is, Daddy is going to be sooo proud of you!!! What a good girl!!!"

I went out and confirmed it... she had gone out and killed a big fat rat and brought it back to us!



Not sure how much of her brining it back was because she felt we needed to be fed, to connect, to show her appreciation, or something else... but either way, it's clear she's pretty bonded with us now!

Here she is with her gift!

Well done, Caly. Scaredy Cat my long time feral frequently drops killed mice outside the back door or by my truck door.

Great cat to kill rats. I do hope she’s sticks with rats and mice as her favourite pray. Our neighbour cats have killed a lot of small birds too.
