Mice Friends!

When the cats go out in the morning, Nutmeg, especially, goes and sniffs around the mouse hole. They are deermice. They are quite frequent flyers around here. Mostly I find them in the shed.


One year [Mouse tails – Happy endings are good!], they built a nest in my lawn tractor! 

This is our front window. We've left the Christmas lights up, just because. 

There is a bench. Under the bench is a mouse hole. It's been there for ages.  Lately, we've been hearing them in the wall. None in the house, but in the wall, for sure.

The other day, I noticed that some of the insulation was out on the porch, some still in the mouse hole.


We've set up the trailcam at the feeder, just for fun. When the cats go out in the morning, Nutmeg heads straight for the mouse hole. Mice friends  



We've had a strange cat outside a couple of times. Last time it was Saturday night, Jan. 9th. It looks just like Cinnamon. Apparently, it was there at 10 p.m. on Jan. 13th.  The trailcam found the Strange cat   hunting for said mice friends.

Hello,
I am glad Nutmeg is keeping the mice under control. They look cute, but I do not want them in the house. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy weekend! PS, thank you for the comment and visit.

People think dogs and cats have bad memories...but they DO remember!! They will be at that mouse hole for the rest of their lives lol! Very cute! The baby mice are so sweet.

...I'm not sure that mice would be considered friends around here.

Mice are sweet but not in the house!

Deer mice are certainly little cuties! No wonder you left your Christmas package lights up. They are cheerful little beauties!

I have to say the mice do look cute in your photographs, but I certainly wouldn't want them in the house!
I think your Christmas lights look nice :)

All the best Jan

Uuuummm... I don't think we would appreciate mice at our house. They would proliferate too quickly.
