Sam the Shrew is dead---RIP
Sniff-- Sam the Shrew moved into our house uninvited while we were still out of state but he quickly became a member of the family.
Sam’s hobbies included helping me with my dance routines.
He would dart across the hallway late at night when I was heading to the bathroom or come flying out from under the couch or chairs inspiring me to attempt moves that I had never tried before.
Sam was very intelligent.
One night he even pooped out a perfect letter “S” on the kitchen counter.
His curiosity and zest for life ultimately led to him going into the washing machine with a load of sheets.
We didn’t find him until he had been dried.
The fabric softener really made his fur shine.
My wife wanted me to bury him with the sheets but heck, they go on the guest room beds anyway.
For his memorial, please send donations in lieu of flowers to my pay-pal account.
The money will be used to help prevent more tragic washing machine related deaths from occurring.

Bark, I just had a thought. That is just about the right amount of fur for you to mak a furry banana hammock to keep your bits warm during cold Alaska winters.....

You do realize of course that if you see one in your house....you actually have 25 hiding in there....
The best trap is a bucket with an inch of water in it and some corn meal....make sure it is next to something lower they can climb on so they can do a swan dive into the trap
My buddy saw a mouse in his master bath off his bedroom, I set up one of those swinging lid garbage cans under the kitchen sink where he normally kept his garbage can and we caught over 20 mice in less than an hour hahahaha
They jump on the lid and it drops them in the bucket for a swim hehehehe

Top - you could loan him your fox rifle to shoot them with. That couldn't end too poorly could it? You know all the best stories start out with 'Hold my beer and watch this'...

Bark,
You sure it was Sam and not Samantha? She could have left a family (full of revenge) behind.. I hope Santa brings you a "Hungry" cat for Christmas.
