And we caught him!

Yes, we finally caught that darn mouse that took up residence in our house a couple weeks ago. Since we're (according to some people) bleeding heart liberals in just about everything, this naturally carries over to our treatment of rodents, however unwanted they may be. So we used the humane trap, where it doesn't actually kill them. On Sunday after Tracy and Dan left, we saw that we had got him, so we drove to a field a mile or so away and let him go. Poor thing; he was actually kinda cute. I hope he didn't freeze to death.

But we have another problem. We caught another mouse last night..... a tiny one. Yup, I think our unwanted houseguest got a little amorous before his capture, and apparently decided that my garage would be a good place to breed. Ack! How many mice are in a litter, anyway? Please say it's like one, or two, tops. Please don't let it be in the double digits!

Don't hate me but rodents are one of the few types of animals that I will NOT treat humanely--they bring disease and ickiness with them. Death to rodents!!!

But I do hope you have no more little visitors.
