Yesterday's Condo
Willie is off to a promising start this morning. Lots of btb cuddles were had and he is now out in the garage searching for Mr. Mouse, who made another appearance in Willie's mouth last night. I had gone to bed and it was around 1am when I here a bonafide commotion elsewhere in the house, and jingling of Willie's collar is definitely part of the ruckus. In comes Willie with Mr. Mouse in his mouth. Thank heavens I turned on the light, because I'm pretty sure he was planning on bringing it into bed to show me. :shock: :shock: :shock: Mr. Mouse wasn't moving, and I wasn't sure if he was alive. This time, I was very calm and spoke to Willie soothingly, praising him for being such an awesome specimen of a cat. I managed to pick him up and keep Mr. Mouse in his mouth. We made it to the garage, where I got him to drop Mr. Mouse. I then threw him back in the house (with the pet door CLOSED), while I tried to scoop up Mr Mouse who was still alive and scared out of his wits. he ended up under the brick stairs going up to the kitchen. So I went inside, got a cracker and laced it with peanut butter, and opened the door from the garage to the patio just a bit, propping it with the glass recycle bin, and left the cracker on the door jam, and I went back to bed. I just checked, and the cracker is gone, so I'm hopeful that Mr. Mouse was smart enough to make an escape, and told all his little mouse friends to stay the heck out of dodge. Willie is out there inspecting every inch of the garage in the hopes of finding him. So help me, if he does.... :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
Not sure what is in store for today. I may hop in the car and drive an hour to an orchard that allegedly has honeycrisp apples. Or I may lay around and watch football all day. Today is city-wide garage sale day, so I think i'll get out here in a bit and check that out.
Hope everyone's weekend is off to a great start!
