I have an indoor city cat that I would like to make feel more fulfilled, so I want to release some male-only crickets for her to hunt down - maybe a couple at a time. Does this sound like a decent idea? I figure crickets make noise so she'll definitely be aware of them and find them, and I'm in boston where crickets don't seem common enough to worry that a breeding partner will be around randomly
They are going to be really annoying, both alive and dead when you have to clean it up.

I'd just put them in the bath tub and under supervision. I don't want to deal with that shit loose in my house.
Lock her in the bathroom with a feeder rat or something.
Those things are vermin. They infest your house and eat your flooring, plastic crap, everything. They're loud as fuck at night.
Have you seen the movie Jurassic Park? Having one gender of dinosaurs didn't work so well. Life finds a way. Would you let cockroaches loose in your house? At least cockroaches are quiet and don't jump.

Do. Not. Do. This.
Rats have seriously long teeth and your cat, who is a indoor cat, doesn't possess the skills to safely kill a rat. A rat bite to you or your cat can lead to serious wounds or infection.
God, play with your cat. They have battery operated cat toys now where you don't even have to move off the couch.
Sometimes I throw a few meal worms in a box because 1) my cat goes ape shit for meal worms 2) they can't fuck up my house if I dispose of them after.
Crickets can fuck up your house, and also pet store crickets aren't the same genus/species of crickets found outside your home. So you can pose a threat to local insects if they get out. Just over all - don't do it. Try meal worms if you really want. My kitties love them. But overall, play with your fucking cat.
It'd be great until the crickets breed and you get evicted for intentionally infesting your building.
Get those hexbug toys.
