It was a comedy. I was working out in the basement. Hooper, who usually runs under the machine, bonking his head, disappeared. I thought, to have a pee. He didn't come back. This was good, as I keep cat toys in the cup holder to throw for him and get him away.After I was done working out, I went into the litter room. There is a closet that holds the well water pump. Hooper was sitting at the door, listening.
Sure enough, he had found a meadow vole.
This vole was a trooper. Ran out, behind the litter boxes, then into the basement, up and down the baseboard until I caught him and threw him outdoors!

I find them cute critters, although they have a wicked bite. Daisy and Dorah have had bites on their noses. They tunnel under the snow, as well!

Hooper's on the job!!! YAM xx
skriek!
That would definitely catch a cat's attention!
Wow, definitely!
I'm not sure if I have a vole or a mouse in my floating garden. It's one or the other based on all the tooth marks on my bottom up devoured beets and carrots. I found a nest, but haven't been able to capture the culprit yet. - Margy
what a game for them all.
Oh my gosh! I've never seen a vole before. They're cuter than opossums, that's for sure.
I don't think I would handle one without gloves and even then ...
