I was just having a coffee and I looked up and I saw a mouse running out of the kitchen. it ran straight towards my dog, over his paws and around him and under the couch. He looked at me like what the hell did you see that ? Useless dog sigh

Want to borrow a Jack Russell? Your flooring may never recover, but you'll have no more rodents.

Some previous cats did that. I even trapped the thing in the bathtub for their entertainment. Nope.

When we had mice the cat did nothing, either. Apparently she was too well fed to bother
