How would you react if your recently feral cat brought a live mouse, to teach her kittens to hunt, and released it in the living room?

She didn't release it right away, she kept her foot on it so she could call the kittens. When a few were watching, she picked up her foot. Cats are amazingly fast!!! What would you do?
Probably try to get her and the mouse back outside.

That being said, I had a great hunter who did not know how or when to kill his prey. Birds can be tricky to coax back out the door once loose and terrified in your home.
I would hope at least one of the cats is a good hunter.

@Mamapolo2016 So far, all of the four older cats have proven to be successful. Mamakitty did a good job.
The cats I have lost patience with are the ones who repeatedly brought me the gift of a half-dead snake. That gets old fast.@JimminyChristmas

@Mamapolo2016 I don't get gifts. My cats eat what they catch, unless I see it and take it away. They growl like crazy, "It's Mine!!".😾
Ferals don't usually come in. I love cats feral or not, she can do that outside.
Karl the Norwegian Forest Cat, who once owned a dear friend of mine, brought her a possum from out back as a “gift”. Alas, a possum’s m.o. is to feign death in the hopes that predators will leave it alone. So upon being brought in the house it jumped up and hid under the sofa. Karl was not as successful in retrieving it and my friend’s brother had to chase it back out with a broom. 😳
