Yes, in yesterdays post that was another mousie I caught. When I caught it, it wasn't deaded for a while. So while it was still wriggly jiggly, I tried to carry it into my mums room and plonk it on the bed for a present. But she said no - No - NO!!!! And I had to carry it back outside til it was deaded.
We live in an old wood house, and with the changing of the season approaching the mousie families are moving about and stocking up for winter.
Mum is off to do some chores and stock up for Easter too, some nice buns for breakfast, some dvds and some new music to dance to.

Well, it's the thought that counts, isn't it Poppy? It was nice of you to think of goving that not-quite-deaded mousie to your mum.
ReplyDeleteBTW, that's a lovely picture of you relaxing on the comforter! :)
Maybe you could put a mousie in her Easter basket
ReplyDeleteYou are SO CUTE Poppy and what a superb huntress! A not quite deaded mousie is quite a prize to present to your mum.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly deserve a nice nap now!
That was not nice of your mum to not appreciate your present.
ReplyDeletePoppy you look so comfy!! I wish I was you, just not the mouse part. :-)
ReplyDeleteI thinks you is very sweet to makes a present for your mommy.
ReplyDeleteHas a happy holiday Poppy.
Poppy we think it was sweet of you to bring the mouse in for your mom. Mom's never appreciate that stuff though, must be a mom thing!
ReplyDeleteMom must be going blind. She did not notice the mouse yesterday!
ReplyDeleteYou look very comfy on the bed.
Sometimes Moms are No Fun, Miss Poppy!
ReplyDeleteOur mom does not appreciate my 'gifts' when I leave them, deaded of course, next to her chair, purse, etc.

Poppy, kudos to you for your mouse-catching! Did you eat the head? All that yummy extra protein. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe Humans have a strange reaction to mousies, especially the half deaded kind. Odd.
ReplyDeleteYoo wuz bringing yur Mum a purresent? It's not so much fun when da mousies are deaded but it is still fun. Mom wants to fank yoo for yur comment bout her back problem. She finks all da good wishes are makin her feel better.
ReplyDeleteIt is too bad she didn't let that mousie come right on in. I bet you would have made fine companions for the winter.
ReplyDeleteyep, mousies like to come inside in the fall.
ReplyDeletePoppy, you look exhausted from all that mouse hunting!...Glad to see you in Mom's bed instead of the mouse!!MOL...xo...Calle, Halle, Sukki
ReplyDeleteDoesn't your mum realise how much you're saving her in mouse catcher bills?
ReplyDeleteBut, but, wiggly jiggly mice are THE BEST! Doesn't your mum know that?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great shopping list. We trust it also includes "treats for Poppu"!
ReplyDeleteYou look very comfy there Miss Poppy! You deserve a nice rest after your mouse hunt.
ReplyDeleteI think a mousie on the bed would be a welcome gift! But I also think my Mom would react the same as yours.
ReplyDeleteYour friend

I caught a mousie once. I ate most of it before leaving it in the bathroom.
ReplyDeleteMandu
you are on a roll with the mousies.
ReplyDeleteThat was so thoughtful of you to bring your Mum a present. I, myself, prefer them deaded too (or alive in a field 100 feet away). I hope you find nip and treats in your basket come Sunday. Dance one for Cat of Nine Tales! We like the oldies :).

You were so thoughtfuls to try and give your mum that mousie! But funny that she said "no, No, NO!!!!"
ReplyDeleteWe can't believe your mum did not appreciate you bringing the mousie in her bed!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great hunter you are, Poppy! Rosie did that to me once and I was screaming and yelling...ick.
ReplyDeleteYou are a very talented mouser, Poppy! The "lenten mice" have returned to our house, and we have been on Mouse Patrol! (Mousie Count so far: 5)

Yes very clever!
ReplyDeleteI brought inside Laura - a beautiful Burmese as I was sure I saw a rat under book case. Laura is a breeding queen & unfortunately was on call. Had no interest in anything but flopping on floor purring & wishing to visit the looove shack.
I will tell Laura about you!
Love Leanne NZ
ps it was a rat - YUCKY and it had a lucky escape out kitchen door. But if it ever comes again blue bate is under book shelf. Autumn is here - not that we have ever had a rat before.
