If you can get some live food in the belly first so you know that the metabolism is cooking, say a couple of weeks of live feed, you could always try feeding on a counter or a table, just something so that you can hide your "attachment" to the dead rodent.

Let me know if it works, I'm curious if it will work for others, or if mine is the only one to be duped.
