Sorta interesting story. I was stitting outside enjoying the cool night air while one of my cats, Lucy,wandered around doing her thing. In the corner of my a mole comes tearing out of the garden, from the looks of it chased out by the oldest, Monkey. I found it interesting because it is rare for wild animals to come near a person so this mole must have been beaten up a little bit already. But as soon as Lucy notices she goes to investigate and then gives it a hard swipe that rebounds it off the wall and on its back. The sound it made was horrible. Fortunately she was playing with it and I decided to find a way to relieve this mole from what might happen. Mostly it was just distracting Lucy and giving the mole a chance to escape.

And thus why I can't be a hunter. I couldn't even stand by and let my cat kill this mole so I don't think I'd be able to shoot a deer. Won't stop me from eating meat though. I didn't see those die.
