Animals help each other all the time. Not gonna go through a whole list but you can look it up at any time. Also even in nature a typical predator prey relationship doesn't always end in killing, if the predator had recently eaten it isn't gonna go out of it's way to kill another prey, that's just a waste of energy.
Even most combat in nature rarely ends up in death. If two animals are fighting for territory or a mate it's usually just until one of them gives up.
If I had to guess it could be because of domestication. Living in nature is way more taxing on your body and just like people have to work out in order to stay physically fit since our lives are easier, maybe house cats will hunt for pleasure for the same reason?

Then why are house cats psychopaths?
