We've threatened to do that for years but neither of us wants to give up the best room in the house.
It turns out we don't have a mouse, we have rats. Apparently the exterminator can tell by looking at the poop. Luckily I had saved one. Now we have traps in the attic. He said we might hear some snaps.
Good morning John.
Sorry about the sleep
I sneaked onto JoesDad’s phone and setup Do Not Disturb to come on automatically at 11pm and switch off at 8am.... it made a massive difference to that disturbance at least Lots of couples do sleep separately. It’s pretty common.
Rat poop is massive compared with mouse poop. They’re easily told apart. Will you have to empty the traps?
Last we used a rat trap was to deal with a grey squirrel that was tearing up our attic. We heard the trap go and left it a few hours to make sure it was dead before dealing with it ... luckily no further problems.
No, we won't have to deal with the traps. They come back and check them every few days. Or we can call them if we hear a snap. When he thought it was a mouse, he put out sticky traps. I hate those! We tried those when we lived in the country and it was horrible! Sometimes we would find nothing but a tiny foot stuck to the trap.
I am back!When the cat is away the mice dance on the table .....
Got in during the night and then slept a lot.
Had a pretty good break.
Just checking on the Cold Dark Room to find that Montgomery, the giant armadillo coffee is complaining about mice dancing on him for four days?
Can you throw any light on this, Sabine?
It is starting to get a bit cold here, too.Good afternoon CDR and all you lovely roommates.
The charge of warmth and good weather Adam`s donkey brought to me is obviously consumed. So it seems to me. Today it is cold 13 C and rainy again.
So I can't send another donkey.
Yes, that's against the wall between corners 2 and 3.
Lovely photo, really nice.
Hope you're having a super time.

Good morning, Adam! Great to not see you back.
Canada was great. And warm. Seriously, I learned on this trip that Toronto is way south compared to Copenhagen!
Oh, and I also didn’t know that Wifey is big in Montreal:
Hope you have recovered by now.
Sorry, missed you again,
have been in Spain for a few days. I'm great thank you.
Life's good.
I love Rusty!It’s an amazing place. Totally set up for the cats rather than the humans. The animals all look so relaxed and fit and healthy... even the pensioners among them.
They have some that are circus rescues, living out their days rather than part if the breeding programmes.
The others are only bred as allowed by the international breeding registers. Generally, males travel to females... but that could be anywhere in the world. Kasanga will probably stay in Uganda once he gets there. He is helping to breed cubs that will be released back into the wild.
These two old boys are brothers and have made their gene pool contributions. They’re in retirement now and very attached to each other - this was our breakfast viewing

One of the most fascinating was this tiny Rusty Spotted Cat from Sri Lanka - he had a big attitude for a small cat!

He's gorgeous!
'72?
Bridgwater, Somerset, England, a horrible place.
But I was young, had my family and friends, a dog, two tortoises and a duck.
Happy days.
There's paws for thought.

Good morning, John!
wifey asleep, Tidgy fed and seems happy i'm back. (doubt she cares really, but i can dream), I'm looking at all the stuff i bought and having a bacon sarnie with HP.
Life's good.
Unwelcome guests.
I would certainly be politely hinting that they should leave.
Good morning.
Good morning, Linda.Good morning John.
Sorry about the sleep
Lots of couples do sleep separately. It’s pretty common.
We don't.
Shared a double bed in Spain but not as big as the one we're used to.
A lot of beating each other, pushing, shoving and falling out of bed ensued.
This health kick without food and cigarettes must be saving you a fortune
I’d “personally” not go for something of this sort. I don’t like the idea of failing anything and I wouldn’t want to set myself up to.
When my grandmother was 100 or so, her body started to fail her and we had to make the terrible decision to place her in a, “home”.
Her Dr. said she couldn’t smoke there. Open mouthed we asked him why not, she could go outside and sit and smoke in the sunshine. His response for her no longer smoking was because it’s “bad for you” we all looked at him in disbelief pointing out that she’s 100, and at that age if she wanted to smoke opium it was his job to hook her up. She being 100 and in good health was lost on him.
