Secret lodger
Jun. 2nd, 2006 10:21 amI know that there's a mouse been living under my roof for years. I acctually thought she was gone but apparently I was wrong. I'm not afraid of mice or something. I like them. But this one startled me today. I was lying in my bed when I heard the scratching so I listened to my little lodger running up and down above my head when suddenly her (or his) head apeared at the brink right beside my bed - I have a loft bed so I'm sleeping pretty close to the ceiling - and she looked at me. I was like "Erm, you're not going to jump down here, are you?" but I could scare her away with a "Hey!". She disappeared again and I heard her running the other direction. I never worried about her living up there because there's not supposed to be a gap big enough to let her through. But to be honest I'm not too keen on waking up one night because she jumped onto my bed. So she either has to come out there today so that I can catch her and find her a new home in our garden - I just hope she's clever enough not to get caught by my cats immediately - or I have to find a way close that gap so she can just go on living up there like she used to.
