It has come to management's attention that one of you has been misusing varmint corpses. In the interest of harmony and health, we've created this helpful guide.

Things you cannot do with a dead varmint in this household.

1. Use it like a teddy bear.
2. Use it as a pillow (See Rule 1).
3. Curl up with it on the sofa (See Rule 1 & 2).
4. Use it to make the bassets howl.
5. Leave it in the Mommy's path from the bedroom to the coffee maker.
6. Hide it under the dining room table where a guest might find it.
7. Collect them as souvenirs. Or trophies. Or to create a set.
8. Eat them headfirst making disgusting crunching noises while humans are eating.
9. Bat or throw them around making Mommy and/or the Bassets think they are alive (See Rule #4)
10. Consider it your very own pet (See Rules 1-4).

Thank you.

It won't help.

Cat's don't read lists like this.

I read it aloud to her, with witnesses. :D

And you didn't receive the standard feline "You Aren't The Boss Of ME!" stare?

Are you sure this is a cat?

Nah, I got that yawn of 'whatever'.

Yep, definitely a cat. The vet bills specified - domestic shorthair feline. Which apparently is a nickname for Ctthulu. Or something.

#8 was always my favorite.

"OOoooooo, the cream filled kind!"

You forgot one - Never, EVER leave them on the pillow of your sleeping human! One of our cats will leave one on the pillow beside our heads while we're asleep. Imagine waking up to a dead rodent "staring" at you from inches away!

Yanno, I keep my bedroom door closed against the basset hounds. So Libby doesn't have access.

Wow. Who needs coffee in the morning when there are rodents to trip over?

Precisely! Adrenaline works as a great substitute.

when we had a baby rat get lose (pet rat) we figured it was a goner.
eventually it grew up, and was..... umm.. adopted by the cats (ferocious mousers all of them)
as a cat
they played together, slept together, etc

when we finally recaptured the rat it was feral as all heck, but we named her "kitten"

Really I'm sort of glad that B is allergic to cats, I don't think they would survive the first rodent on the pillow and really none of my friends would talk to me if they found out I killed cats.
