Let's Go Mouse Hunting!

I've yet to experience the opportunity to get up close and personal with these cute little vermin, but in recent weeks my human discovered one eye-balling her when she went to open a cabinet door.  We had all already heard the little "squeak squeak" and patter of little feet now and then, but up until that moment, the mouse had all but been a ghost.  No, she didn't scream, and in the blink of an eye he was gone.  And darn it, I think I missed my chance because we haven't heard a peep since.  Or....maybe my gentleman caller across the hall got to him!  Yes, I admit, I'm still meowing at my door, and he's calling to me from his....sigh, maybe one of these days our owners will set us up with a "play date".  Wouldn't that be the cats meow!!  Until then, however, I guess I'm left to daydream, sigh....same with the mouse.  I used to have a toy mouse, and I think I loved it just as much as this kitty does:



But wait!  Lest all you humans out there who are under the impression that we felines make fearless hunters when it comes to mice, think again:

 

Hmmm, come to think of it, I think I might fall into that category! And there are some of us out there who even think "Tom and Jerry":



Happy Mouse Hunting!!
