I just bought $1 worth of crickets, got around 2 dozens of them and i release 2 or 3 in my house so my cats can hunt and torture them.

They dont eat it, but they play with it and slowly kill them

Yes. I also don't recommend it, not because it's cruel but because that might turn into a bad habit later.

I'm not convinced that insects actually experience pain to where it might even be a moral issue.

Catch bugs yourself like men use to. Men don't catch enough bugs these days. Women cook dinner and men catch bugs. That's how it's always been.

They used to hunt cockroaches that wanders in but roaches population in my house is declining since i got them, and they are easily bored with toys. Like i have given them various toys from mice looking, insects, worms, etc they all get bored within 2 weeks of playing even in rotation. So i say fuck it, i went to bird store and buy several crickets

I don't think that's happy, especially if the toy has stopped working. Honestly they'd probably be happier if you left a box.

I guess i'd draw the line on mammals. I thought of buying small rodents, but rodents feel pain like humans and the cats might try to eat it and catch a parasite or something.

Boxes aren't for playing, they're for getting their fat asses in.

They got more exercise in 20 minutes than a week if i play with them with cat toys. I threw the crickets corpse outside, birds or ants will probably take care of them later.

Now they are eating and looks satisfied

All my cat has done for about 4 years now is sound the alarm. She doesn't do it herself anymore, just lets us know there's a bug to deal with until we come do it.

Now she's demanding to be covered up.

My cats catch and eat them whole. Can't say I've ever bought them - I have plenty in my garden than during the summer they hunt.
Mine doesnt eat insects thankfully. They do enjoy hunting and mangling them, that's why i think it's safe
