I actually do get your point. Im not sure if it would improve your cats overall quality of life if it got to kill something on its own though. I think live feeding can be justified if it improves the animals life quality (physically or mentally) or of course if that's needed to get the animal to eat. It happens in nature literally all the time, and the way humans produce meat either way isn't cruelty free (if anything often worse due to conditions we keep animals in). But I don't think its generally needed for a cat, given how many keep them and only feed them bowl food, and a lot of the time they seem to be thriving. Do what you want here I think
