No......it's not that. We DID have a mouse one time. I know this because I fed my cat her wet food one day, and then I walk out of the kitchen. Suddenly my cat runs over and meows at me, kind of waving her front paw in a kicking motion for some reason.

Usually that wouldn't have been concerning. But RIGHT after I put her wet food down??? Something was clearly wrong. It's like Charles Ramsey said years later "Pretty white girl comes running into a black mans arms? Somethings wrong here. Dead giveaway."

Except replace pretty white girl with my cat, replace black man with me, and add the context that fresh wet food was just put down.

My cat runs into my arms away from her food bowl at feeding time? Somethings wrong. Dead giveaway.

So when I walked into the kitchen, I see my cat looking sad at her food bowl as a mouse sits in it, and eats all the food. My cat is looking at me like "DOOOOOO SOMETHIIIIIIIINGGGGGGG!!!! DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!!" And I looked at her, and said "why are you looking at me? Its a mouse. You're a cat. You're always begging for more food. That right there is free protein. Go nuts. Eat it all. And she looked at me sad and pathetic.

So i put on 2 oven mitts on each hand, wrapped the second hand in barbed wire, and carefully picked up the whole food dish. Opened a window, and threw the food dish, mouse and all out the window......

Then I got a paper plate and gave my cat a fresh dose of wet food to replace what I just threw out the window.

I said to her "you're lucky you're cute, because you clearly aren't helpful." She didn't care. She was munching down her wet food. Plus she doesn't speak english.
