Your post says 'to make him a man'. It doesn't say 'just to give him a treat'. Clearly you think by encouraging him to kill something, you'll have given him a 'right of passage', he won't be the timid kitten he used to be. That suggests to me you're not happy with how he is at the moment - you want him to be 'a man' instead.
A cat's instinct to hunt is a residual part of their biological make-up. If a cat doesn't appear to have that or does and is unwilling to indulge it, why do you feel the need to encourage it?
If the cat can't catch a dove by itself, what will catching one for it prove? What will it accomplish allowing a cat to kill a thing you already caught for it?
If he doesn't have the confidence to catch a bird or a mouse by himself, never mind. Trapping one in a room for him just seems weird to me.
Clearly you're very easily rubbed up the wrong way. No, this won't deter me - you only know you've misinterpreted something in hindsight. I'd rather post than not post.
Much much better post. More dual-perspective than slapping claims. But I have started losing interest and seriousness in this redundant debate, so I'll try to do this as quick as possible
I see your "It doesn't say 'just to give him a treat"
And I raise you my "I want to feed a bird" ... "Should I just get him a goldfish?"
A bird. A goldfish. A! A = singular = one = neo = matrix = a test = testing = disthing (when pronounced with a south african accent)
I want to feed a bird to my cat to make him a man
