Pesti where are you?

My Dearest Mouise,
Hope you received the flowers we sent you. We have missed you, greatly at the recent under bench scavenger hunts & after lights out wall-cavity-climbing. Even Cat is looking a tad under-whelmed of late.
Wishing, a speedy recovery from the dreadful dose of  sodium fluoroacetate you received. Mrs Sparrow is quite beside herself with grief, but we are all very please to hear it was not plague at all. 


Lots of love, 
Yersinia Pestis Rat.

Darling Ratty,
Thank you for your kind thoughts and flowers, they were very tasty indeed. No doubt shall be back on all four paws soon. 


With the greatest affection,
A. E Mouse. 

Dearest Ratty.

Dearest Ratty,
Am afraid will be unable to attend this evenings, wall-cavity climbing expedition.
Rather poorly at present. Possibly plague, or the green (formerly Costello Blue) cheese consumed at Mrs. Sparrows, 'Under the Dining Table Soiree.'
With the greatest affliction, 
A.E Mouse. 

They seek her here, they seek her there...they seek The Mouse, everywhere!

Cat has recovered. Bit of a fright, wasn't expecting that.

Tonight: a wonderful night of frivolous flight and fun. Cat discovered me in the sitting room. Ran in under the settee -tiny hole, great place to hide, rattling about in the settee.

Cat running hither and fro, on, under and over - climbed the curtains. 'The Duchess' came bounding in looking VERY grumpy.

Cat has been extricated to the garden, whilst Rat and I are having a lovely time nibbling bits of confectionary from the cushions and watching Restoration Home.

Rat has plans to nibble the walls, after lights out tonight.
