This was fun reading. Thank you.

I like the cat and the mouse...actually, I have one to add here. "The cat and bird" game. I once set up a bird feeder nearby a bird bath. The birds would enjoy the feeder, and the neighborhood cat enjoyed sitting in the bird (cat) bath. The cat would watch and wait and swipe at the birds. Talk about crazy!

Lucky for the birds...they are fast and the cat can't fly!

Realizing what I had done, I quickly separated the feeder and bath to save lives!
