Sayif just brought back a mouse! A tiny one. Still alive, unhurt as far as I could tell. I should have taken a picture, but I freak out when that happens. I hate it when my cats do that. I know it's natural but still.. Good thing is it's only been the second time. I once found a dead mouse in my garden and who knows how many they have eaten, but live mice - uh uhn! I freak out especially when the mouse is hurt. I don't know what to do then. I once (years ago) tried to kill a dying mouse.. I couldn't.. In the end I flushed it down the toilet...
Tonight's mouse was lucky. I took it in a glas and brought it back outside. It was wet and shivering, but not hurt. I wanted to dry it a little bit, but it was trembling too much. I was afraid I'd scare it even more.
Also, my neighbours (a few gardens away from mine) have this big angry, black male cat that has been harrassing me and my cats for months now. I gave it shelter and food though, when it was frozen and/or wet in the winter months, because the owners just couldn't seem to take care of it. Now, it's been 5+ days that the cat has disappeared. The neighbours came to ask me if I knew about the cat's whereabouts. I hate this cat, but now I can't stop thinking about what horrible things could have happened to it. It must be quite stressful not to know where your pet is, when it's gone for so long.
