“Really? Any idea who?”

“I might have a lead on that for you. Let me check in the back room. Come with me."

Somehow, a mouse asking a cat about its future seems pointless.

Like a fox guarding the henhouse!!

Let the chase begin!

….someone very, very close to you!

Not every playmate is a friend, little one!

In a game of cat and mouse, never be the mouse.

Uh ooooh! Better run, run as fast as you can….

“Bad old putty tat.” (mouse tweet).

baby mice usually have only one play date in their short lives. js

“…and his name is Tom…”

And the bad news is…, never mind. Lets just stay positive today.

It’s peculiar when you think about it, when the question of a cat “playing” with a mouse comes up, people always take the side of the mouse. Nothing about mice otherwise would suggest that anyone would take their side in anything.

could it be the fortune teller?
