My cat plays with the mouse in the water bowl too! I thought that he did this to "drown" it because later he chewed it to death.
Actually the water softened it enough to chew it apart. I also pulled a drawstring, the kind you find in the top of pajama bottoms, out of his behind.
I brought him home when he was about 3 1/2 months old. The string was about 12" long. I couldn't believe it how we could have actually been able to swallow it without choking!
I have noticed that when a cat gets something stuck on their tongue, they will try to swallow it.

Be very thankful! by: dixie doodle
My brother's Maine Coon was able to swallow 1/2 a spool of orange thread without anyone noticing what he was doing. I took him to the vet but it was too late to fix all the terrible problems.
I'm so glad your kitty was able to come through the surgery. And since I don't like to carry a purse I'm glad that she does! What a marvelous story and what a sweetheart Ms. Mushroom is!
