Ignoring the standard Bay12 cat jokes, did you check if he's wounded or anything? Some of that matted fur might be blood or some such thing.

Also, does he mouse?

LOL!!!!  2CAT!!1

On topic, I hate when cats do that.  A few years ago we woke up to find our cat Furball (Huge, lazy, orange, the only cat I've ever really liked) had gotten into a whole mess of baby rabbits and massacred them.  He left half of one on my dad's foot, the rest scattered around on the porch and maybe one or two in the house, one was still alive and died from the saliva a few days later, making my sister cry.  What a crazy night.
Fucking awesome.

Nah, I didn't see any wounds when I was trying to pluck out the tar, and he doesn't limp or show any other signs of injury.

And yeah, I get regular mouse carcass deliveries.

That's good to know. About the uninjured state of the cat, not the mice. Mice eat things they shouldn't eat and therefore deserve what they get.

Eugh. All our cats ever do is mess around with lizards and flies. There aren't any mice or rats around here anymore, I'm assuming because the chickens killed them all.

My god... Chickens. Those things are vicious. I mean, joking aside, I've never actually seen them kill a rat, but I've seen what they do to smaller birds, and it is the very definition of unpleasant.

I fondly remember my old cat puff. She would actually manage to sneak her gifts in the house and deposit them under the pillow on the bed. Nothing says "I am your cat, and I love you" like finding half a chipmunk under your pillow. And nothing says "I am a cat, and I need your help to dispose of the evidence" like having to bury half the neighbors dog before they discover he "ran away".

Rip the feathers off them and peck the crap out of the exposed skin.  It's not pretty.

As for the cat, just make sure to remember this valuable lesson if you decide to wash it.

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.
