My $#@! cats left a #$@! DEAD Mouse in the Dining Room!!!!

[FergieTCat]

For the past few weeks, my cats have been "guarding" the area underneath my refrigerator. I KNEW there was a mouse there, but I hoped it would leave, all would be well, and my cats would find a new hobby.

Those $#@! beasts left me a mouse carcass in the middle of my dining room. I hate, hate, hate dead mice. I don't even like live ones (which is why I pretended I had no idea what they were guarding). I managed to get rid of it by calling my mother for moral support and then dropping many paper towels plus an old dish towel on it. Then I had to touch the #@!$% thing (is there a vomiting smilie? A vomitie??) to pick it up and toss it down the garbage chute. I live in an apartment building, and I may have freaked all the way across the hall (at least that's what my mother said when she was done laughing). I'm sure my neighbors were ready to call the men with the padded wagon.

i hate cats, I hate mice, and I really hate Fergie and Diana right now. But, on the plus side, they did stop guarding the refrigerator.

And how is your Friday evening going?

would you have preferred it in your bed?

You got a present???

 

[FergieTCat]

If they had left it in my bed, I assure you I would be living in a catless apartment. I would have shipped them back from whenst they came (my brother in Florida).

AHHHHH!!! I feel your pain! I hate mice dead or alive!

(I just love the title of this thread!!!)

Sorry...it's horribly unfunny. I had a similar experience with a spider who was big enough to have starred in Jumanji, and my stupid cat did NOTHING!

At least you didn't step on it! Been there done that

In our old apt we would just toss the dirty laundry into the pantry and walk over it to get to the stuff at the back of the pantry--Well one morning I got up walked into the pantry,stepped on the pile of clothes and felt this cold wet gooey ick--I lifted up my foot,looked at it,seen the red ooze and thought WTH----I looked down and seen this thing-it took a few seconds of staring at it to figure it out because the cat had tore that thing to shreds

I FREAKED

I was screaming and crying and hopping around on one foot---I couldn't even touch the foot to wash it off--DH had to do it---Horrible experience--rates up with the time I had bug legs on my tongue--Horrible..

And how is your Friday evening going?

LOL, great ending.


My cat has RESCUED a mouse from the trap (but I like the little fellas).

When the cat's away the mice will play.

I hope you petted the cats, gave them a saucer of milk, and told them how good they were.

I'd rather have cats leave a dead mouse in the dining room than a live mouse living under my refridgerator.

 

[MickeyMouseGal]

My parents' cat does that all of the time. Then, Mom calls me (usually when I'm at work) and wants me to come over immediately and deal with it. I'm always telling her, "Mom I'm a vet. So unless you want me to bring it back from the dead, you're going to have to wait for Dad to get home."

Same here! I'd also prefer that to having to get them unwedged from a mouse trap.

That's nothing... my brother once complained of a sqeaking noise under his bed when he was about 6. Mom told him you're dreaming, go back to sleep. A little while later, "Mom, something under my bed is still squeaking!" By about the 3rd time, the whole family is up to investigate and sure enough, there is a squeaky noise coming from under his bed.

Boogeyman? No! It's a pile of feathers, still chirping. No feet, no beak, no recognizable body; just a chirpy sqeaky nasty pile of feathers.

Moral of the story: Be glad YOUR offering was DEAD!

This is all too funny!!

Yuck, yuck, yuck!

I'd also prefer a dead mouse to a live one. My cat brought me a present in the middle of the night once. I heard her crying, but it was kind of muffled. She jumped on the bed and dropped something. I jumped up as fast as I could to turn on the light. It was a dead mouse. I was getting ready to pick it up and get rid of it when the $@%*# thing jumped up and started running. I don't think I ever screamed so loud in my life! It went under the dresser. I finally cornered it into a trash barrel and took it outside. Ick, I was so creeped out.

i've had cats since i was a kid.
some of them would bring their "presents" in the house.
it grosses me out. and always had mother, brother, even neighbor
come and get it.

yes, i'm a wuss

the current cat caught one last night, but this one leaves them outside

I'm sorry, as soon as you mentioned the carcass I couldn't stop laughing If it were me you would have heard me screaching in Europe... so you are a stronger woman than I!!!!
