Cat and Mice

John and I have owned cats nearly the whole time we’ve been married. At the moment, though, we only have a dog; a Westie/Schnauzer mix named Duffy. He’s a delightful companion, whether we're playing ball, taking walks or just watching TV together. A cat would get into my sewing things, track kitty litter through the house, cough up hairballs, leave PARTS of mice on the doorstep, and leap on the kitchen counter when my back is turned. So why do I miss having a cat in the house? I wish I knew. One of our neighbors has a beautiful tuxedo cat. I see him making his rounds nearly every morning. I don’t know where he’s going or why, but he’s clearly not pleased to find me watching him. Today’s block is called Cat and Mice. Interesting name. If there’s only one cat here, then there are five mice. And one mouse is INSIDE the cat!
