I had a barn cat once who was a great mouser. She also got squirrels, chipmunks, birds, rabbits and once tried to take down a pheasant. She was indoor/outdoor her whole life and usually ate what she killed. Not sure if this is true, but I read somewhere cats have to see their mother do this as a kitten or they will only kill and not eat their prey.
