This morning I let my dog outside and it was really foggy out. I thought for sure that he would stay in the side yard, where he usually stays. He generally “does his thing” and then plays with the cats for awhile, and scratches at the door to be let back in. This morning he was staying out longer than usual. The fog was lifting as the sun was coming out, and even calling his name didn’t make him come back. I didn’t panic.. yet. I went to the back patio doors to see if he had gone out into the big back yard we have. Wouldn’t you know, I didn’t have batteries in my camera. There was my dog, playing with (from what I could count) at least seven rabbits. It seemed like they were doing their own special game of hide and seek and tag. One or two rabbits would take turns chasing the dog, then he would chase them. No fear in the bunnies what so ever. It makes me now wonder just how long this game between he and the rabbits has been going on. It would have made for a wonderful video. I just put batteries on my shopping list.
A mouse in the house
I just spoke to my mom about an hour ago, because she called to make sure I was coming home to her house. Then she called back to tell me that she has been trying to capture a mouse that is in her house, all day long. Apparently she can’t set the traps. I personally don’t like to kill mice. I think they are cute, and that is a cat’s job. I’ve never had a mouse in the house. I had to assure her that my husband would set her traps for her, since she is afraid of the little thing getting into her pantry and eating her dried goods. I can tell by her voice that the hunt for the mouse is now on. This should be a trip, to say the least!!
