ewww lol i have no idea. but that jus tosunds gross, cats eatign mice. lolWhy dont they make catfood with mice?
http://www.purpleslinky.com/Humor/Animal鈥?/a>
read the link - it is called ';NEW MOUSE FLAVORED CAT FOOD'; it explains everything...Why dont they make catfood with mice?
Cat food manufacturers want to please the human pet owners. Mice are commonly known to carry lots of diseases and therefore have an ewww factor that would not impress people as being best for their cat.
Ha ha its because scientists haven't found out how to put the whole entire delicious taste of mouse in one packed sized kibble ^^
That is an excellent question! Cats love to eat mice more than chickens and cows or even salmon! :) How gross would that be for us cat owners though? Ewwww...chopped up mice.
package it up and sell it on line your a freakin genius
That's a really good idea! I've never thought of that before... you should get it patented.
Before I do =]
New Whiskas Rat Flavour..your cat's will chase it!!! :D
maybe some people are scared of disease??
you dont want your cat to get sick do you?...
Make it (disease free!) and I'll buy it!

You can find the plot summary and the charactersitcs in wikipedia.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Of_Mice_and鈥?/a>
You ARE studying it, or you are MEANT to be studying it?
Read it and you will find out for yourself.
Its a great book and film.
Self-sacrifice between Lenny and George. However, you should really find the rest out yourself.
if you are studying it don't you already know
SparkNotes are the best guides to use for GCSE.
Wikipedia could help as well.
I wish I could help more, but its a somewhats vauge question. Juts read SparkNotes %26amp; that should help you write a damn good essay on it.
Here's a brief plot summary, directly from Wikipedia;
Two migrant workers in California during the Great Depression 鈥?George Milton: average in stature, intelligent, and cynical, but caring; and Lennie Small: physically strong, but a mentally limited man 鈥?come to a ranch in Soledad, California to ';work up a stake';. They hope one day to fulfill their shared dream of settling down on their own piece of land. Lennie's part of the dream, which he never tires of hearing George describe, is merely to have soft rabbits on the farm, which he can pet. George protects Lennie from himself by telling him that if he gets into trouble he won't let him ';tend them rabbits';: they are fleeing from their previous employment in Weed; the childlike Lennie was run out of town, with George accompanying him, because Lennie's love of stroking soft things resulted in an accusation of attempted rape when he touched a young woman's dress.
At the ranch, the dream appears to become possible. Candy, the aged, one-handed ranch-hand, even offers to pitch in with Lennie and George so they can buy the farm by the end of the month. The dream crashes when Lennie accidentally kills the young and attractive wife of Curley, the ranch owner's son, while trying to stroke her hair. A lynch mob led by Curley gathers. George, realizing he is doomed to a life of loneliness and despair like the rest of the migrant workers, and wanting to spare Lennie a painful death at the hands of the vengeful and violent Curley, shoots Lennie in the back of the head before the mob can find him. The shot comes while Lennie is distracted by one last retelling of the dream.
I read Of Mice %26amp; Men when I was doing English GCSE, %26amp; I found SparkNotes to be the best to use.
EDIT: Although, I would suggest reading it. SparkNotes is merely a stepping stone, the difference between a grade...
ps. Don't rely on Wikipedia heavily, you never know who wrote it. It's all opinion.
You are gonna have to read the book yourself to benefit.

I need some hlp for an englsh project debateing the end scene of mice n men needa know about the death penalty
like what states still have the death penalty? i need a source though too so from wherever you can get the information or anything else saying killing someone because they killed someone is wrong.. thank for whoever helps! =]I need some hlp for an englsh project debateing the end scene of mice n men needa know about the death penalty
36 states have the death penalty. They are: Alabama
Arizona,Arkansas,California,Colorado,C鈥?br>
Delaware,Florida,Georgia,Idaho,Indiana鈥?br>
Kansas,Kentucky, Louisiana,Maryland,Mississippi,
Missouri,Montana,Nebraska,Nevada,
New Hampshire,New Mexico,North Carolina,
Ohio,Oklahoma,Oregon,Pennsylvania,Sout鈥?Carolina,
South Dakota,Tennessee,Texas,Utah,Virginia,
Washington,Wyoming
from http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/article.鈥?/a>
Here are some other facts about the death penalty, with sources below:
127 people on death rows released with proof that they were wrongfully convicted. DNA, available in less than 10% of all homicides, can鈥檛 guarantee we won鈥檛 execute innocent people.
The death penalty isn't reserved for the worst crimes, but for defendants with the worst lawyers. It doesn't apply to people with money. When is the last time a wealthy person was on death row, let alone executed?
The death penalty doesn't prevent others from committing murder. No reliable study shows the death penalty deters others. Homicide rates are higher in states and regions that have it than in those that don鈥檛.
We have a good alternative, life without parole, on the books in 48 states. It means what it says. Life without parole costs less than the death penalty.
The death penalty is much more expensive than life in prison, mostly because of the upfront costs (before and during the initial trial) of legal process which is supposed to prevent executions of innocent people.
The death penalty doesn't necessarily help families of murder victims. Murder victim family members have testified that the drawn-out death penalty process is painful for them and that life without parole is an appropriate alternative.
Problems with speeding up the process. Over 50 of the innocent people released from death row had already served over a decade. Speed up the process and we will execute innocent people.

A question about the book 'Of Mice and Men'???
What are some examples of discrimination against Lenny because of his mental disability in the book. Please help, thanks!A question about the book 'Of Mice and Men'???
One example is how some of the men on the farm pick on him because they feel as if he's not smart enough to stand up for himself. They wouldn't have picked on such a large man if he didn't have a mental impairment.A question about the book 'Of Mice and Men'???
Wow one of the few questions people have asked about help for their book reports (obviously) that I have actually read.....
Well lets see... I read the book like five years ago.... but lets see....
Well his friend talks down to him a lot, but yet is still decent enough to be his friend.
........ uhhhhhh. I'm sorry I haven't read the book in so long. Just think about the people who worked on the farm or whatever, how he hurt people accidentally and they hated him for it.
Hopefully other people answer though...... READ THE BOOK THOUGH! It was a good book.

Should you feed rats or mice to snakes?
I read that rats are alot more nutricious and better for snakes. well i have a colombian red tail boa and a ball python well please let me know thanks!!Should you feed rats or mice to snakes?
Either a mouse or a rat would be nutritious for your snake. It doesn't matter which one you feed it because they both are very nutritious for your snakes, but some day you will need to feed your snakes rats because mice will be too small for them too eat and will not give the snake all the nutrients it needs. A snakes main diet is eating rodents, so either a mouse or a rat would be nutritious, but some day you will need to switch your snakes over to rats because they will be too large to only have a mouse.Should you feed rats or mice to snakes?
Yes, feed your snake mice or rats, that's fine. Buying pre-killed, frozen rodents at a pet store is the smartest decision, because the rodents cannot harm your snake like the live feeds can.
I can't imagine that one rodent is more ';nutritious'; than the others, and the difference between feeding your snake rats or mice is all based on the size. Like it's been said before, don't feed your snake anything bigger than the widest part of its body, otherwise it will regurgitate and will probably be shy about eating for a while.
I also have red tailed boas and ball pythons and have had them for many years. I much prefer rats over mice. I breed my own at home and rats are WAY less smelly and rat pups that are a few weeks old are usually what I give to the ball pythons. I let them get a bit bigger before I feed to the boas.
As far as nutrition goes, Mice and Rats are equivalent. It depends on the size of the snake (as others have said) and what they will eat. Some snakes are picky eaters. Some people also feed gerbils, hamsters, or African soft furred rats.
You should feed them mice, not rats.
Rats can actually kill them, it happened to my friend's snake.
Something happened where the rat bit the snake and i don't remember how it died exactly but it was caused by the rat bite.
You can feed either to your snake. It all depends on how big your snake is or whatever your snake prefer. Sometimes the prefer rats over mice. You should feed your snake a mouse or rat the same size as the biggest part of your snakes body.
I think the only factor in whether you feed your snake rats or mice has to do with the size of the snake and or how often you want to feed the snake.
I would feed them only a few rats and mice every few monthes. Mabye a rat and 3 mice every month? I'm not sure, I don't know anything about snakes. I think you should just use rats and mice for snacks
rats is what i prefer but ask the local pet store where you get your live feed, it may depend on the species.
what kind of answer is yes?
It all depends on the size of your snake. bigger snakes like boas or pythons should eat rats, and smaller snakes like garden or milk snakes should eat mice.
Yea i would stick with rats but if mice are cheaper then go for them if u feel like it u kno ur snake better than anyone choose what he likes best which one will he lunge at and which will he eventually eat
Well, snakes live off of rats and other animals in the wild. So yes, it should be fine to feed some to them.
