I was looking out in the kitten room at Kaleen and Susie, Susie (three
months old) was playing with one of those small grey toy mice, having a
great time with it, trotting around with it in her mouth, she dropped it, IT
scuttled off down the room, oh no a real mouse, the teeniest mouse I have
ever seen, shouldn't even have been out of the nest, she pounced on it and
caught it again, it looked at me with sad, pleading eyes, I said to DH do
something, do what? I'll get my gloves, I couldn't stand the look in the
little fella's eyes so I shot into the kitten room and scooped it up with
some newspaper I had been holding onto, Susie was looking for her "prize" I
gave it to DH and he let it go over the back fence, it will probably be back
in a few weeks (if it survives) and get caught in the mouse trap we have set
in the garage!!

Cheers

PS A few hours later I went out into the kitten room to give the girls their
dinner and tidy up, there on the floor was another small mouse, I fear he
was too far gone but I picked him up and put him gently into the flower
garden, the girls must have their own secret horde!
