Over the last few years the cat has stopped bringing dead and dying animals home, but for two years running he made an exception and left a dead mouse outside the back door on my birthday. This year he didn’t and I am feeling very put out.
Its not that I actually wanted a dead mouse or anything, but its the thought that counts isn’t it?

Ah. I’ve been chatting to the cat and we decided it was my turn to send you the dead mouse…..I’ll see if I can catch the postman!
