Little Mouse

Little mouse in my house
You think you're so smart
No fear or fright and late at night
Across my floor you dart

I don’t see or hear you
But did you seriously think
I wouldn’t notice the droppings
Left under my sink?

My mousy friend I too am swift
And just for you I got a gift
No its not cheese upon a trap
That when you nibbled failed to snap

And no more chocolate left for you
On top a matt all smeared with glue
Oh no dear mouse its none of that
Today my friend I bought a cat!

You made me smile with this sweet rhyme Kitty. (How appropriate.)

Very cute Kitty! We have one of those electronic things that are said to rid the house of mice. Well I found a mouse just sitting in our garage, not moving because of it, so I got our Tommy cat to scare it away, but he just looked at it without any interest, which goes to show it is mostly the movement they chase! The mouse finally left on its own. : )
