The Rescuers

When my nephew, Noah, was younger and I was homeschooling him Fri. became Flick day and on more than one occassion that flick was one of the Rescuer movies.We would go as far as to act like some of the critters in these movies.  You know the one with the 2 little mice that did daring feets and helped those in trouble.Great memories. Here I thought those movies were make believe until 2am the other day I was startled by a noise. It was loud squeeking. Now for a professional mouse catcher :>) I knew exactly what the noise was even in my groginess. I have glue boards in strategic places in my room as I have watched the pattern of little mice in my room. One of those traps is in the corner of the door. I shown the light on the board and sure enough…Voila…a mouse grasping to be free. He was stuck, or so I thought. I went to get my tool to take him out and when I returned you will never guess what I saw. Under the door there was another little mouse trying to save his friend from my dreaded glue trap. I just stood there in astonishment and I had to laugh and this movie came straight to my mind. I was in a quandry as to what to do. In my Oh so vast experience…lol… I had never seen this. I went to get a better flashlight and when I returned which was a brief 20 sec. tops, this little mouse had rescued his friend. I don’t know how, but he pulled him hard enough to set him free. I had to make reinforements after this, double up you know!!! When all said and done 2 mice, 1mega cochroach caught this week and 2 mice got away. They better think about what they are getting themselves into next time they come to my room…just sayin:>) I guess I needed some new critters since Henry is gone. I really don’t mind being critterless though…Really!!!
