All instinctural behaviour. It appears they are playing but they are not. They are honing timing skills.

As for taking from nature. There is nothing natural about not allowing the natural killing of animals by any other animals . Actually, the more rightful thing for ALL of the animals is to allow them all to live the way God intended them to. That entails the cats outdoors, killing for food and the chipmunks running for their lives. This is what animal rights intends...for the animals to live as they were intended to and that means that the cats should be allowed to live as their instincts tell them to. You cannot be a good animals rights activist and choose one animal over another. You have to be for all animals equally and therefore, in our animal kingdom, it entails knowing some must die to feed others. Just like bugs must die to feed birds, we must treat bugs as equals to the birds and like the birds must die to feed the cats...etc.

We cannot pick and choose because we are animal lovers. For it is because we are animal lovers, that we understand that they must be free to live as God and nature intended them all to live,,,,not just some of them. We cannot pick and choose because we have an agenda. It is not how society works...

Imagine how your community would feel if one human species were allowed to die or would have to stay indoors because human rights activists said that should be so, but others should be allowed all special rights because they are....'chipmunks' so to speak. Ok this is starting to make no sense I think but it does make perfect sense to me.

Just remember that we should not pick and choose. We are either pro animal rights or not. All for one and one for all....not some.
