    ASF's and cats

    Let me tell you - I am so glad that I have a kitty who is a mouser at heart! ASF's "boing" if you aren't careful when trying to feed them off, and I've had quite a few "boing" right on out of the tub and take off.

    Thanks to my ever vigilant hunter, they don't get very far, because she is on them like white on rice! I just had this happen last night, and within 5 seconds, the escapee was caught in her jaws (unharmed, I might add).

    I don't know what I would do if I didn't have her - I know I'd be spending up to an hour trying to catch one of them on my own.

    Do any of you have any mousers to help you with the escapees?

    Here she is - bugging Diamond while she's eating, of course:

    Oh Robin she's growing up into such a lovely cat!

    So far are only rodent escapees are immediately caught by yours truly. Apparently for an old broad I'm quite the mouser!

    Mya our female cat does like to sit and stare at the rodents but it seems to be more like somebody watching tv than any kind of predatory posture. She really acts like a predator around the goldfish tank but hey they aren't likely to jump out and race off to hide under the fridge so not much use of that is there.
