Reply #1: Ya know how some cats try to bring us fresh meat/fowl to supplement our diet?

Some cats notice we have bad hunting skills. We go out often but bring meat back seldom. So they try to help out and try to develop our kill skill.

Well, we had a cat who noticed my sister and I ate a lot of salad. He raided the neighbor's tomato patch one day. Brought us a nice branch of cherry tomatoes, along with some fat, juicy green protein supplement on that chunk of vine. He did not understand my sister's violent reaction when he jumped in the chair next to her as she ate a salad, and presented her with his more balanced meal recommendation.

Damn, that was a good cat. He used your method for worm removal, modified slightly to accommodate his lack of thumbs.
