I Caught a Mouse!
We seem to have mice in our house as of late. My mother told us she saw one run by our stairs a while ago. I thought she was crazy to be honest and for a long time we didn’t see anything. But, sure enough this past week a mouse made it’s presents known to us. The next day I went to Canadian Tire (it’s a Canadian hardware store) to get some no kill traps. It took a few tries, but we were able to catch mouse in it. The only problem is… we seem to have more then one. Now I have to catch his little friends/family. The one I caught was super adorable, but he couldn’t live in my house. I let him go in a field/walking path away from my house. I hope I can catch the rest of them so they can be reunited. ^_^
I did this doodle for this post, but it reminded me that a long time ago I wanted to do some city mouse & country mouse drawings. It theme would be large insertions with two lady mice. Because when your a mouse, everything is large. Oh baby!

We had a problem with mice at my job. The owner didn’t like the appeal of buying costly live traps so he opted for the traditional snapping ones.
And don’t forget the many cute mouse girls in animation. Like Bridget from An American Tail http://www.ospreygraphix.com/html/Screens/American-tail/sc-ameri-1-brid.html

Oh wow… she is a cutie! Very nice. I might have to remember her for later. ^_^

She’s too cute. A shame that you couldn’t have used a live ‘trap’ to lure her out.
… (Literally hears crickets chirping.) …
(Sorry for the bad pun. I really hope that this one doesn’t fall too flat.)

Every winter we seem to get mice in our apartment. They must be trying to get out of the cold.
