Apparently the health food is effecting our rodent community.
Last night, Wicky was playing with a mouse and they brought the game into our bedroom-
We awoke to pouncing, running and lots of squeaking. I took this middle of the night opportunity to register the little squeaker in our relocation program. Eventually I caught the mouse in a gallon glass jar. This works nice as a holding room until morning, when, more awake, I can discuss relocation options.
I looked in this morning and did not see a mouse- jokingly I told David that all the healthfood must make them stronger and smarter because they have never escaped the jar before.
A few hours later I looked in a saw a mouse in the jar. huh? Okay- so maybe I was mistaken earlier. Or maybe they have powers of invisibility, like David suggested.
Just a minute ago, I was in for, yet another, surprise!
They are super mice- I heard excessive squeaking- looked in on our friend— who , much to my surprise,was entertaining another mouse- ( the loud talker) who squeaked, hopped out of my jar ( yes, I said hopped -out-of-the-jar!!) & scurried away. Caught mouse then began jumping/ trying to escape. Obviously, the loud talker, also known as Mighty Mouse, came in to instruct our young mouse friend on the art of escape.
I’m not really sure what to make of all this- we definately have some smart rodents around here damnit- I really don’t want to admire their intelligence nor their sense of community.
Sheesh!
