mood:
amused
Okay, so I think this is kinda funny, though David isn't amused in the least...
He found a dead baby mouse in one of his shoes this evening. I of course can't stop giggling about it. It amuses me to no end trying to figure out which kitty left it for him.
There are a few reasons we may have mice:
1. There's a vacant lot next to us. Though it's all grass, it's like the bahamas for a mouse family.
2. Our neighor to the back of us is clearing out a ton of brush along our mutual fence line. He may have stirred them up. The dogs were really fascinated by a noise along the fenceline last night. A twittering, squeaking kinda sound.
3. The rain may be driving them to dry ground. Dangerous cat-infested ground, but dry ground.
4. Our deck in the back yard comes right up to the house and has a ton of excellent room underneath for a little mouse den.
Now, on that note, shall I point out that we have not one, not two, not three, but FOUR FULL GROWN CATS???
I'm very proud that they caught this one. But seriously, it looked like a baby. Can't they take out the mother or something a bit bigger??
Wimps.
And see, they do love David. I mean, they gave him their prize mouse!! LOL!

I assume Shiro found the mouse in his shoe the unpleasant way? :-)
