Speaking of animals and food oddities, my dog used to carry his food one mouthful at a time out to the living room so he could eat around us. He’d drop it on the floor and then leisurely eat it and go back for more.
When cats bring you food, mice, birds, etc. it’s because they think you’re an especially stupid cat, but they like you enough to keep trying to take care of/teach you.
This has been debunked, unfortunately, male cats do this too, and they don’t teach kittens to hunt.
It is believed now, they simpltdo this because they want to bring their prey to their core territory. Which is also where you are.

The cat never sees you eat and is concerned. The dog carries his food out to you for roughly the same reason, he wants you to know he is eating and you should not worry about him. It’s a social thing many animals do.
My cat eats a few bites of food then finds a string, swallows it down a good bit, then pulls the string back up from her throat and takes a few more bites of food. This continues for her whole meal.
There’s nothing more disgusting than stepping on her food string. It’s cold and wet. So gross.
Dude what the fuck
One of my cats love fishing used tea leaves out from mugs. She doesn’t eat them, she just paws the leaves out from the cups and then leaves them on the counter. We have no idea why she does it but she absolutely insists on doing it. No other cat does this.
