He's gotten his tail caught in a trap and was dragging it around. She wasn't about to cope - just wanted to corral him until Dad got home from work!<br /><br />Those poor little field mice.

Dogs are absolutely worthless when it comes to mice. They would watch him run across the kitchen and then go over to snoof his trail. The mouse trap we tried first just snagged his leg, and he was Stuart Gimpy after that. Glue traps, box traps - we tried every expensive piece of equipment on the market. As he ate his way across the kitchen counter and cupboards, I had to resort to poison. <br />I have no idea where he is right now... I just hope the pups don't drag his mummified corpse out of a closet one of these days...<br />So glad to hear the hernia was non existant - you have enough health issue last year to last!!!<br />I haven't read Hedgehog... I will run over to Chopsticks and read your review before my 20 minute blog time allotment is up for the day.<br />Happy Spring!! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-952123278881586212010-03-14T09:22:01.427-04:002010-03-14T09:22:01.427-04:00I'm not quite sure what to say.

Poor thing just wanted to stay inside where it's warm and a nibble or two could be found. You make me happy. And Stu probably died happy too.<br /><br />But wow, when they stink, they stink.

No, not at all; it was the literary illusion - it was the combination of words.<br />So glad you worked it out. The Gypsy must have (or should have) been beside himself with a mouse so close and yet...lifeless. <br />I love the story of Stuart Little, along with all the mice in Ms Potter's tiny books, too. And like you, don't dislike them except when they make me jump. ( I don't like that when suspense movies do that to me, either...make me jump, that is.)<br /><br />And a wonderful picture that is with the cardinal in the wintry tree! <br />Oh, there is such glee in seeing Spring coming, feeling it approach, isn't there? <br />I'm going to run over to "chopsticks" now and see what you thought of "Hedgehog." I finished it, too, a few weeks ago, and want to see what you thought.<br />more later - <br />ciao!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-23443493351087258652010-03-13T10:00:49.808-05:002010-03-13T10:00:49.808-05:00I'm sure there is some lovely art that could b...I'm sure there is some lovely art that could be made with Stuart's bones.
