Jeez, Bags, you’re complaining because there’s a mouse pooping on your desk? There are LVA members that want to poop on your desk. Consider yourself lucky that it’s only a mouse, and give the cute little guy whatever he wants.
I don't know why this creature loves my desk...but he was just up here again. He sure is fast!!!
Faye wants me to go out and by one of those gerbil "houses" and keep them as pets. Just yesterday he jumped on "Sugarbears" stomach and landed in front of her nose! She was sleeping at the time. She raised her head....sniffed the mouse....and put her head back down to sleep. I swear these dogs think these mice are part of the family! Someone suggested taking in the neighbors cat who sleeps outside every night, but these mice are sooooo fast.....I don't see how a cat could catch them!
You've obviously never seen a cat catch a mouse. I've seen it many times. Cats are much quicker than you might think from seeing them lounge around a house.

That is the thing about cats, they will stay still for what seems like hours and then spring with lightening speed. The first time I witnessed this as a new cat owner I couldn't beleive what I saw, my cat literally snatched a dragon fly out of the air.
Buy a four-pak of traps (because there is probably more than one mouse) and bait them with peanut, ................. and keep them out of your dog's reach.
Then stuff cotton in Faye's ears so she won't hear the "snap".
In the morning, you ......... the big game hunter, will be proud of the results.
This afternoon while sitting at my desk, I spotted the little creature sitting on the edge of my wastebasket. I couldn't believe how he/she could balance themselves that way without falling. In the flash of an eye, this sucker then jumped under my priinter desk and disappeared!
