Everybody say, awwwwww!!

This sounds a bit macabre, I suppose. Some people who are very committed to feeding their cats a truly "biologically appropriate" diet of raw meats buy the little feeder mice sold for snakes. The mice can be purchased live or pre-killed. There's a few online purveyors, like Mice On Ice, who will sell you frozen mice for pet food. "Pinkies" are the hairless babies. "Fuzzies" are the older furry mousies. I just imagine having trays of frozen baby mice-icles, like little pink popsicles, sitting in my freezer next to the Red Baron pizza & peanutbutter icecream - awww, no, there went my appetite!

No really, check out the Mice on Ice website, it is quite funny.

I was looking for images of baby mousies and found this sweet little album. The owner bought a very pregnant mama mouse and photographed the babies from birth until maturity - which takes only four weeks,. The photos above are from her site.
Now I am definitely never buying mice for Elvis the cat to eat! Not that I was considering it in the first place, honestly.
