Mousing master class
Cats mogular diary has been quiet for some time. We finally have new
postings from the mad moggie though, including a mousing master class: I have been teaching Debris the mogular art of mousing. I brought the live mouse in a short while ago for the lessons. Bignose set a trap but I had other plans! The mouse finally became bold enough to venture out yesterday and I was quickly able to chase it into the room where Debris was sitting reading. I then sat on top of the chair and watched. At first she was really not very good. She would be searching under chairs and behind the TV when I knew it was behind the shelves. After a while I would give her a pointer by jumping down and flushing it out again and the chase would restart. Later she started to get better so I tried to fool her by staring intently under a chair when I knew it was behind the TV. She fell for it every time! We had hours of fun and she eventually managed to catch it in the humane trap. As a result Debris can now be awarded the title of Trainee Deputy Under Mouser. I know she will be really chuffed!

Mousing master class
Was this a mouse that you brought in from the pet store for the sole
enjoyment of your cat??? Or are we talking about a mouse that was already in the house? What did you do with the mouse after you caught it in the trap? -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album Andy wrote: Cats mogular diary has been quiet for some time.

Ok, I'm confused. Who is Debris then? I assumed it was the cat's
name. -- Britta "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." -- Unknown Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album Mischief wrote: Uh think this is from the POV of a cat Bignose setting a trap i think is referring to a hoomin At least i hope it is Kristi badwilson wrote: Was this a mouse that you brought in from the pet store for the sole enjoyment of your cat???
