Pinot caught a mouse, two mice, three mice!

Yes, it had to happen sometime. Some of the local wildlife have succumbed to the hunting prowess of Pinot. (Fidget still prefers playing with tall weeds.)

On Friday she caught her first mouse, but didn’t really seem to know what to do with it, so Fidget took over and played with it. Like he does whenever she gets hold of any toy.

But on Saturday she caught another mouse, and this time she wasn’t going to let him anywhere near it until she’s finished with it. I.e. it was dead. At that point she thought she may as well go find another live one. Which she did.

So that’s three. So far. That we know of, anyway. Luckily they’ve all stayed outside so far, and haven’t been dug up again once I’ve buried them either. I wonder which animal or bird will be next. She certainly eyes up the magpies that come wandering around like they own the place, but I really hope she just leaves them alone until she’s got just a bit more weight behind her!
