Quimper Hittys 
This is adorable…only you can make mice look so endearing that I was glad the house cats didn’t catch them.
The cats just wanted to play…I think. The rodents just wanted to escape with their ill gotten gains!
I agree! Adorable was the first word that came to my mind too.
Those dratted little thieves are too cute for their own good!
Loved seeing all the kitties searching for the mouse. Glad they did not catch him-he is too cute!!
The cats were disappointed, as was Gracia. On the other hand, the villains were quite pleased with themselves!
this was hilarious!! made me recall the evening when a mouse was running across the living room floor!! Two dogs and one cat gave chase…futile chase!! Great chaos as two BIG dogs and one determined cat careened around the room. Took me and a shoe to end the villains forays… your mouse is a lot cuter then the one here!!
Oh my goodness, your mouse trouble sounds a lot more exciting than Gracia’s. She was disappointed with the cats, but I think the cats are secretly glad.
Oh this was brilliant! Love all the cats, they are fabulous, although not very good mousers by all accounts. The little mouse was full of cunning and a certain amount of charm I might add. Thank you for the morning giggle.
I think the little pests are cute too – even if a nuisance. Perhaps the Hitty cats need some lessons from the household’s human cat who is a very assiduous mouser! I am glad to have given you a giggle!
