This morning the cat brought me a bird and a mouse. He's quite the prolific hunter...and he's nice enough to bring his finds into the back yard for me.

When mom opened the door this morning, I sneaked the mouse into the house. It was just the perfect size for me to slip into my mouth without her noticing.

Unfortunately, I was a little excited and squeezed the mouse, and a little pee spot appeared on the carpet. Mom thought it was me. So when she came to check to see if I was okay, I didn't know what to do. I was afraid she'd see the mouse, so I ran upstairs. Duke knew I had something and wanted to see, so he came too.

Mom came upstairs after us. I was ignoring her when she was saying, "Dutch, come here."

I ran into the bedroom.

Mom followed.

Then she saw the mouse tail hanging out of my mouth and screamed! She wasn't sure if she wanted to grab it or not. So she said, "Hey, let's go downstairs." And we all went downstairs. She opened the back door and let Duke and me outside.

She called me, and I didn't come. So she and Duke chased me and the mouse around the backyard. I didn't want them to have it so I ate it.

Afterall, if it's good enough for the cat, it's good enough for me.
