The Mouse

Project 365 - Day 23


Finally - the mouse story :)

A little background first:  We have always lived in a pretty suburban area and Timber has been an indoor cat his whole life (8 yrs) and never had a 'run-in' with a mouse until last winter (he didn't catch the mouse then either lol).  I set up a 'humane' trap using peanut butter, a cookie sheet, a brownie pan and a straw (sounds strange, but it worked!).  The little mouse went in to get the peanut butter and I closed the trap with a broom and out into the country he went.  Score: Jenn - 1, Timber - 0.

When we moved into this house last summer, we had a mouse in the house but didn't know it.  Oh, we found out quickly when my parents woke up to find the little mouse deceased on the floor near the bottom of their bed.  We thought "Yay, Timber did it!  He finally learned how to get the mouse!" lol  In hindsight, I think the mouse may have had a heart attack and that's what killed him because I'm now convinced that my cat cannot kill.

He was stalking our refrigerator on and off for a few days last week and he would lay in front of it, just staring underneath it, and would not move from his spot.  When he started doing that, we knew he was probably tracking down a mouse.  At some point the mouse ventured from the refrigerator to the kitchen food closet because we found a package of Nutty Bars that he had a party nibbling on.  Then Timber started to guard that closet.  Well, at some point yesterday afternoon the mouse got brave and came running out of the closet and Timber got him.  Then he dropped him.  Then he got him again and brought him into the living room where he proceeded to drop him on the floor and pat him with his paws.  He thinks the mouse is a toy!  Mousie got up, ran across the living room and under the TV corner stand and we haven't seen him since.

Made homemade pizza for dinner tonight. Funny thing is, I'm half Italian and my Mom (the swamp Yankee) makes a better pizza than me! lol
