Title: Teaching ala Cat

It was all in the timing, chasing the mouse around the boxes inside the garage. She tried not to be distracted by the shrieks that her humans were giving while still keeping an eye out for the whack of a broom that they thought was helping. Humans really didn’t do this game very well. She’d tried to train them; bringing them in presents of dead mice, washed all clean and left to lie on the carpet where they’d be sure to find them. They still seemed to fear these little playful creatures that tasted so good. It was terribly discouraging.
