MISSING MOUSE AND SCREAMING FROGS

The pussies are having a great time at the moment. Tommy and Mitzi have been sleeping on the bed at night with Binky close by on the floor. I think Kitty has been sleeping in the lounge. Tommy loves to be outside and Mitzi looks up and watches the house martins swooping in the sky

Today I heard a funny noise by the bathroom and later discovered a dead mouse. Someone (probably Kitty) had left it for me as a present. Poor little mousey

In the afternoon I heard a dreadful high pitched screaming noise and gingerly made my way downstairs to the source of the screaming. Tommy had a large frog in his mouth and was being watched by Mitzi. He ran out of the French windows and let the frog go. I picked it up and it played dead. The poor thing was covered in bits of fluff and carpet so I washed him in a puddle. He was quite large and had beautiful green eyes with black pupils. Eventually I put him in the undergrowth near the bottom of the garden

Later I went back to dispose of the dead mouse but it had gone. What a surprise! I have never encountered that before. Usually they leave a dead thing for me and that is that

Caught Kitty just now in the hall eating the remains of some entrails. I wonder if that is the riddle of the missing mouse solved?
