LOL... damm city people.... you should live in the country!! Every year when harvest season comes around the mice get inside since there is no food in the fields. Just bring the cats in and let them go at it!
Kinda cool to watch a cat on the hunt. We used to have one cat that when outside she would bring down rabits twice her size, attack dogs, go swimming with us, and inside would catch mice and bite thier heads off!
I miss that cat.
Now that I live in an apt, I have a very large fat cat that plays catch, but would do not a thing about mice or rats. :-(
