Lifes Like That

We have an unwanted house guest in our home these days.  My son calls him “mousey”.  That’s right, we have a mouse.  You would think that since we have a cat, that we wouldn’t have any of these unwanted house guests, but no, our cat is more interested in chasing flies than he is chasing mice.  My son is a better mouser than my cat is.  When the cat here’s the mouse (he’s under the cupboard somewhere), he arches his back, but if the mouse seems to be closer then the cat runs away.  My son on the other hand, if he hears it, he stays right still in the spot he’s standing in just in case he gets to see the mouse.  He is kind of ticked off at the mouse right now as the mouse was eating the cat food.  You would think that the cat would be annoyed over this fact before my son would be, but….nope, he doesn’t seem to mind sharing.
