Of mice and men
So we have mice. This is something that Lucky finds delightful. In all of her hunting prowess she's forgotten that she's supposed to kill the rotten things and instead plays with them. She inadvertently killed one from playing too roughly but the second one got away. My mom doesn't want us to set traps because it would be killing an innocent creature and she thinks we should let Lucky the Mouser take care of it. Like I'm going to leave it in the paws of Lucky. She caught a (dead) bird over the summer and carried it around like her trophy. She didn't even kill the damned thing herself!
I have also discovered the scanning properties of my new printer (bought on boxing day for 59 bucks!) and am scanning anything I can get my hands on. So for your viewing pleasure I present... PICTURES! (it won't let me put them here, so I put them at the top. Just a random assortment. I'll find more.)
(after all they are worth a thousand words)

Hey Sirina!
There is a cruel and tortuous way of getting rid of the l'il buggers. There are these little green pellets you can buy at Home Depot. They're poisonous. When the mouse eats them, it goes away and dies and the poison disintegrates their carcass.
Gross? Absolutely. But I wouldn't want to remove bloody mice from traps, either.
Oh, and if you use the HTML version when writing posts, after you upload your photo, you can click on it and drag it down through the text to wherever you want it. Hope it works for you.
I've updated my blog finally! when you look at the time of the posts, subtract 7 hours, i still haven't figured out how to change the time zone. My blog is still on English time.
anyways, check it out when you are in a hockey arena next. :)
Rob.
I don't know if I want to use poison because of the cat. She's not the brightest and will eat them and I don't want her to disintigrate.
oooh. Good point.
Hmm. At any rate, you should visit the nearest friendly neighbourhood Home Depot. They were extremely helpful when I saw them with the same problem. They take you through quite a number of options.
