However, our cats are more 'house cats' than anything else, groomed (and spoiled) to be purely pets from when they were kittens. They only get out to 'play' for a few hours each day in our garden, in largely urban surroundings, and never at night. They're also extremely pampered and well-fed (on all the best cat food), and so I guess that they feel no real compulsion to hunt for food in the short time they are allowed outside.
