The Cat That Won't

We had the most beautiful weekend here and spent a fair amount of time outdoors and in shorts.  Ella even broke out her new sun hat which is still a little big for her.

Anyhow, we were in and out of the house a fair amount with the seed starting, sidewalk chalking and driveway laps.  At some point (possibly not even this weekend) we ended up with a new pet in the form of a little white mouse.  Sophia (our cat) is not the welcoming kind but eventually warmed up to the new arrival around midnight on Sunday night which is when we discovered our new addition.  The little, beady-eyed bugger was getting playfully batted around our bedroom and bathroom.  This was of course much to its chagrin and my own.  Not the most fun thing to get woken up to just as you drifted off.  We had to gently remind this visitor that it did not have a bed in our house and that even though our cat was not doing her job, it was not welcome here.  Note to self, our cat is not a cat at all.  Roe's I need to borrow Jada for a while.  At least I could count on her to perform her natural born duty.
