He Was Terrified

cats No Comments

We have three cats and they play with anything they can find they were chasing after each other this morning after the lights came on they had found something small brown, and soft looking. I figured they had found a scrap of fabric from the craft room. Christopher poked at it with his paw. The fabric swatch ran toward me. He was a tiny mouse he kind of froze for a second or two then ran between the chair and toolbox into the darkness. Christopher was reaching as far as he could down the track of the mouse. Hover is obviously smarter than I generally give him  credit for he had ducked under the coffee table and was reaching under the chair from the other side. I’m not sure how the mouse got away but coming from both sides the cats had both been outsmarted. While the mouse was frozen with indecision I got a good look at him. He was trembling, as I looked at those beady little eyes I knew that he was terrified. As much as I love my cats I must admit this one time I was routing for the mouse.
