50 Times Pets Brought Their Owners The Most Unexpected Gifts
Dogs and cats may not be able to verbally express their gratitude to us, but they do have one thing going for them - they are amazing gift-givers. Who doesn't love waking up to a freshly-killed mouse in their bed?
For both canines and felines, the 'tradition' of gathering the fruits of one's hunting expedition and presenting them to their superior runs deep in their blood. Whether they've caught a toy, a random object, or a small animal, the hunt will fill them with great pride, and by bringing their catch to you and thus sharing that pride, they communicate a sense of kinship with you. So, while you may be horrified by that dead frog your kitty just dropped on your pillow, know that it wouldn't be there if your furbaby didn't love you with all their heart.
Scroll down to see the weirdest, funniest, and sometimes scariest gifts people's pets have brought them, and vote for the ones that you would be grateful to receive.

When cats bring you things like birds or mice its because they think you dont know how to hunt or take care of yourself.... what is your cat really trying to say here ?

This Is The Gift My Cat Left For Me In A Dark Hallway.....may Have Kicked With My Foot! Look At Him With This Murder Mittens!
I know it's kinda gross to see (and almost step) on a dead mouse in your house, but don't be mad at the cat and don't blame him for doing it, cats always get animals/sticks/toys to their owners because they think you're hungry and you eat like them. It's also a sign of love, your cat loves and trusts you so that's why they get you these "presents".

Everyone knows this, but it still needs to be said " Dogs are awesome "
So many cats and dogs obsessed with sponges! I have never seen such a thing before. I mean, sponges are cool and all but none of my pets ever showed interest in sponges.
Maybe they do not think your cleaning is lacking.
Load More Replies...When we first got our geckos, cats broke in, and one gecko went missing. The window was open so we didn't know if it was in the house or outside. We moved the remaining gecko to an inaccessible room so the cats couldn't get to her. Two days later one of the cats comes running in from the patio outside with the missing gecko in her mouth. Perfectly unharmed apart from a missing tail. Both cats and geckos are alive and well today!
I have a cat that gets things out of my bedroom and brings it to me meowing all the way I say thank you give him a pet and put it back till next time
makes me glad my dog does,t bring gifts..well not for some years..brought a mouse once
It's good to know my cat isn't the only one who bunny-naps babies to raise as her own....
My cat looooves to fetch nails (or screws) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PVHzu5TTD4

So many bad owners. Cats never should go outside. They kill birds or could get run over. Dogs should be kept on a leash or inside a fence.
