It’s all fun and games till a mouse takes over your patio.
That’s what happened here at Chez Tabs this week. Rosie used to call the shots here at Tabs the Cat Industries, LLC, and for the most part she’s been a benevolent dictator, but a few days ago a tiny tyrant of the rodent variety moved into, or onto to be more accurate, the patio where the staff (basically, just Marnie and Rosie) take their lunch.
For the most part, Marnie and Rosie work fairly well together.
I mean, Rosie tells Marnie to do things, and Marnie tries to oblige… Bless her heart.
They’d reached a form of detente, and it had been pretty effective until that mouse showed up.
Now every time one of them goes out there and tries to nap underneath one of the wooden lettuce or tomato planters, the mouse starts scratching or sneaking around somewhere in the area, must be underneath the wood, and Marnie and Rosie can hear it, and it drives them nuts.
It’s a shame because Tabs would have never allowed a usurper to … usurp his authority like this.
There’s just no way he would have shared power. 😹
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
