With its very fast legs and hands, it can run very fast. Then once as it reaches its prey, it attacks it. Or in another situation, the cat can sneek up on its pray and JUMP at it out of no where. (if this cat is not rased in a home)

At four weeks and under, kittens get all their nutrients from their mother's milk. They start to wean off milk and onto solid food around four to eight weeks old. The solid food, if the family is in a domestic family, is usually kitten food in some shape or form.

Cats are hunters, and if food is not provided by humans, they will hunt for small mammals, birds, and to some extent insects.
