Sunday morning and the animal saga continues. No sign of the mouse but that is not a bad thing as it means the cats have not caught it and killed it over night.

We now have another visitor. We are not sure if it is a vole or shrew. Anyone out there able to identify it? We tried catching it but they are so fast and can squeeze through the smallest spaces. Amazing.

We had put some cereals out for the mouse behind a cupboard as we were worried about it making the 'cat bowl run'. This morning some had gone so we know (s)he is OK. Later today we will have to shut the cats away and pull the kitchen apart to catch them and take them to safety.
