His owners feed him. I remember him getting milk, and in cartoon's that everything a cat could never need or want.

Lucifer hunts and kills for fun.

even if cats are well-fed, hunting is an innate instinct for them.

Trust me, I know: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/house-cats-kill-wildlife-previously-thought-birds-article-1.1130909

Point being, he's not going to starve if he stops trying to kill and eat the mouse-people, but he continues doing it because their suffering amuses him.

I don't know if that's how real house cats work, but other anons on here sure act like it.

he does it because he wants to eat them.

if you look at the scenes where he goes after them, he's practically salivating.

And real cats 'play' with their prey because they want to make sure it's dead before they eat it, not because they're being cruel.

My cats have no idea you're supposed to actually eat mice, spoiled lapbrats that they are, and perpetually catch and release their prey until it dies of injuries and/or fright and they lose interest, unless I take it away first.

Real, well-fed housecats do hunt mice and birds for fun (and instinct and practice). All my cats did! But it's not the other animal's suffering that amuses them; they're not capable of those kinds of thoughts. They just see it as a moving thing that's fun to chase.

This. Jeez, cats are really, almost definitely, not capable of thoughts of cruelty. They are, however, very playful animals, and they aren't generally capable of relating a captured bird/mouse as a real "someone" (unless they've somehow befriended them, which has happened). Cats like to play and chase squirming, running things. It does not make them evil, or cruel. You can't pass moral judgments on them when they are not human.

Well, you're right, you don't know how real house cats work. They are not amused by suffering - they aren't emotionally capable of cruelty. They play with their prey because they like to play, and aren't capable of emotionally connecting and relating with the thing their instinct tells them to kill and eat (as all animals aren't). You sound a bit like you have a weird vendetta against cats, which is... weird.
