Sheila’s Surprise

Originally published at Five Acres with a View. You can comment here or there.

This morning, I was taking a bath when Sheila pushed open the door. She likes to watch me take baths, so I didn’t think too much of it until I looked over and saw that she had a mouse dangling from her mouth. I was tactless enough to scream, and she left in a hurry, fortunately taking the mouse with her.

In principal, I approve of cats catching mice, but in practice, I hate dealing with the results.
