Fluffy's a Good Hunter
Ever since she chose us to move in with, we had never seen her do
anything but sleep, eat, demand to be petted, and sit, smiling, on the catnip scratching board, but yesterday she showed her true feline instincts and caught two mice. One of them met his end after a short session of torture. The other one escaped. Unfortunatly, the one that escaped was the one that she brought into the house. He was last seen squeezing through a hole under the kitchen cabinets. His re-appearance should be interesting, especially if he jumps out when my wife opens the cabinet door or reaches into a drawer. |

My mother once opened the silverware drawer, only to find a little mouse standing on top of the forks and gazing up at her. She let out a startled scream, and the mouse ran for cover. Afterwards, she joked that the mouse was probably more startled than she was. Her main complaint was that she had to wash all of the silverware, and the drawer itself, as the mouse left a number of "peppercorns" in the drawer as souvenirs. My sister once lived in an apartment that had a hot-air duct just below the ceiling. One night, she noticed her cat staring fixedly at the duct. When she looked up, she saw a mouse in the two-inch gap between the duct and the ceiling, gazing down at the cat and probably going "Na, na na na na! You can't catch me!" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 7.0.3 for non-commercial use http://www.pgp.com iQA/AwUBQMNz1zMYPge5L34aEQKu+wCglcV6GxFI+5+NwofsWZwLLk wbl+AAn1UG 6rhbuQBXhUGl0mfvPGiGiCEV =ok1D -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- John F.
