Deb, I LOVE THIS!! I so wish I had thought of this first, LOL! We have those little mousies all over our house. We find them in our shoes, in the wastepaper baskets, under furniture, beneath cushions, in the bed sheets...you get the picture! Anyway, you are so darn clever and this is a WINNER!! #7192660

Fantastic image, Deb. My cats have a lot of those little mice, too. For some strange reason, they like to drop them in their water bowl! #7193237

Kathleen Rinker February 22, 2009

Very cool my friend, boy Morpheus sure grew in a hurry, great creativity, love it!! #7193248

Debra R. Harder February 22, 2009

Thanks everyone!! Sirsendu...my cat is beautiful, but far from being obedient. I have a new appreciation for how well behaved Petey Beans and Josey are. Morpheus, aka Lucifer, Satan, Beezlebub (you can see where I'm going here), pounced and knocked over the toy mouse pile about 20+ times...UGH!! LOL!! Deb #7193281

Dianna Murphy February 22, 2009
