Angel of Death pass by

[pegkerr]

This was a red letter day: I heard something scrabbling around inside the live mouse trap this morning, so I borrowed kiramartin's cat Greta this afternoon so that she could dispatch it. When I opened up the live trap, to my surprise there were three mice inside. One was dead, but two were alive and left in a hurry. Greta, Mighty Huntress, got one, but the other one escaped. Edited to add: Delia just came in to report that kiramartin's other cat, Bianca, managed to land Mouse # 2. On the other hand, Greta took Mouse # 1 into kiramartin's house, where, although it is almost half-dead, it managed to escape into the heating vents. Kira, forgive me. I hope you're right, and Greta will find it again or at least it expires soon. Next time, I will take the live trap further down the alley before opening it.

And I found another dead one in the snap trap. Altogether that makes four mice that I got out of our house in one day.

Up here in North NOLa winter is nipping at Our heels. Mice ain't stupid and come indoors both for warmth and food. My apt building has gardens on both sides so we get them mices running in the walls. Miss Tobiko goes nuts trying to get at them, mighty hunter is she.
