It's been a whole lot of day for a long time now, so I haven't been posting.

Today I came home to find a mouse on the kitchen countertop. I have no idea how it got there. That's a meter above the floor and all the walls are either finished wood or drywall.
I've been meticulous about keeping the floor clean and the space under the counters vacuumed and filled with mouse traps of various sorts.

Was Monty interested in the mouse? Ripley would have been all over that... but then again, today we had the Cat Scrubbing Incident of 2018 when she escaped her confinement and jumped up on the window ledge that I was paint-stripping. AAAAH scrub scrub scrub. She liked that just as much as you can imagine. I am surprised that she wasn't mad at me afterwards, but inexplicably, she seems not to be.

If Monty actually saw the mouse she would be mesmerized. She goes berserk over small animals. She doesn't associate noises or smells with them, though, so she has zero deterrent effect.

Poor Ripley!
