Feces doesn't contain anything that is "poisonous" to humans. Cat feces can carry many varieties of bacteria and protozoans which are parasites. In the case of Toxoplasmosis, the cyst needs to be exposed to oxygen for 24 hours before becoming infective. In most cases, clearing out litter everyday can prevent most infections you would be in danger of.

∙ 12y agoYes! that's why there are "cat and mouse" and "tom and Jerry". It is a completely natural thing for a cat to do.
Cats, even our pet cats, are perfectly capable of safely eating a mouse as that is what they have evolved to eat, amongst other small animals and birds. Such small animals are easy to hunt and catch, and due to the size of the prey, the bones are easy to crunch up.
Cats are strict carnivores and predators, and will eat everything of their prey. The organs of the prey are full of essential fatty acids (Taurine, for example) and other nutrients that a cat needs. Even bones provide the cat with calcium and are easily broken down and digested in the cat's stomach.

∙ 13y agoAny outdoor cat might capture a mouse, but may not eat it, while other cats will. It really depends on the cat's personality; some are excellent hunters, while other cats are not. There is no certain cat breeds that are better at hunting and eating mice than others, it all depends on the individual cat, regardless of breed.
Wild or feral cats in particular would most definitely eat a mouse, or any other small animal it catches.
I have an indoor cat, so I have never seen her eat a mouse or bird. She does often like to chase string and light though.

Yes. Where there is cat feces, there is also cat urine, and urine decomposes into ammonia, which is a poisonous gas.

The decomposition of cat feces releases sulfur-containing gases, some of which might be changed to sulfuric acid when dissolved in water (as they would be in the lungs).
