Emma just jumped up and caught and ATE a fly in the house. Yuck

Oliver could entertain himself for hours like that, he gets them in the window sill and bats them around before eating them. Otis likes to sit on the floor and snap at the air when they fly by him. It's quite comical.

Look at it this way- easier than using a fly swatter.

I could think of worst things for her to eat too.

LoL! I guess you are right, I just so wasn't expecting that! Then to make matters worse she spit out the leftover fly body after she ate the wings, and ate the REST of the fly, *barf* LOL

My cat april does the same thing. My sister's dog likes to chase mice. Can you imagine a 125lb chasing mice? Very funny to see believe me...he is huge. I have to wonder if the mice die of fright from watching him chase them. I know I would pass out if he chased me.

Awe how cute! I did think it was funny when she was just chasing them, but I had no idea she could catch them like that!

LOL

Lexie and my cat Siris hunt bugs together. There was a mud dobbler (sp?) on the sliding glass window earlier and Lexie was hot on the prowl. I told her she was too pretty to eat bugs but she won't listen. Ick

Vinnie's Mom · 07-12-2007, 08:51 AM

Vinnie just started chasing flies! We just moved into a house, so we left the doors wide open a lot and windows to air the place out. It's the cutest thing, at first we thought the little guy was going bonkers, then we saw the fly, haha He just did it again last night, i love it, it's hilarious, he's so serious about it!

GracieLou · 07-12-2007, 08:57 AM

gracie always trys to catch flys they drive her crazy she hasnt accomplished catching one though lol

red98vett · 07-12-2007, 08:59 AM

LOL !! My Chanel LOVES catchin flies - I have to get them with the flyswatter when I see her trying - she really gets some Airtime

that's BIG fun - or should I say 'Bug' Fun ???

AMD · 07-12-2007, 09:00 AM

Our lab tries to catch flies, moths etc, but luckily she always misses

It can be rather entertaining watching them try to catch a flying object.

nvnvgirl · 07-12-2007, 09:04 AM

Hahahaha...ROFL....Max acts like he's terrified of flies if they're in the house and will go into the bedroom and hide from them. When we go out to dinner and are sitting outside on the front patio in front of all the other diners, he just waits for flies to come anywhere near him and then he snaps them up and chews them up

. I think he thinks he's entertaining everyone

reeses · 07-12-2007, 09:07 AM

Well guess you can thrown your flyswat away. Lol. Yucky...maybe good in protein tho???

Ellie May · 07-12-2007, 09:08 AM

Ewww, if I ever saw Ellie eat a fly I would want to throw up and brush her teeth 10 times after teling her that she needs to act like a lady. I don't even let her keep her nose in the grass for too long because she might eat a bug.

Jenn218 · 07-12-2007, 10:35 AM

Mojo also find is entertaining to chase flies around the house. I don't know if he has ever caught one or not. It is good exercise for him! (ha)
