Mouser

Well, I thought I'd share another itty bitty mouse story with you. Remember I said every night at 8:30 pm a mouse would come out from behind the couch, or under the entertainment center, or Dooda's cage and look at me as if to say, "What are you going to do about it?"
Well ever since I pulled out furniture and cleaned, I haven't seen him since. He moved. Well I found out where he went. (Take a wild guess!!!)

Last night Cody came into my bedroom and said he saw a mouse run under his bed. I told him to go turn off the light and come get in bed with me. He left and came back VERY scared (I've never seen him so scared, little bugger must have run right in front of him). His little eyes were full of tears. I held him for a minute then we went to investigate "said" mouse.

The mouse was about 1 1/2 inches. And he didn't seem to be scared of us at all. In fact he was under the bed munching on something (I'm assuming it's something the kids left on the floor). But he just kept doing what he was doing. I went to go get something to capture him. Well, right about that time, Dugan came in and I said, "Get the mouse Dugan!" Not expecting him to do anything but sniff it. (We're talking about the dog who can't wake up to protect our poor little chicken from coyotes!!) Well, I assumed the mouse would get away, but when I finally pulled Dugan away, the mouse lay there, under the bed, not moving. Dugan chomped him! We've got a mouser!

So Dugan IS good for something!!!! ;)
