Capturing of the 3rd roommate pt.1

It's been one week now, since we got a third roommate.

This is how it goes;

Cute, but not that cute.
It's time for the little mouse to go home...

Now we can only wait and see if the mouse likes 'Fuet' (spanish salami)

Just to explain this somewhat out of the ordinary and fantastic mouse trap Thina made.. I will give a little background info:

The thing is.. it is not because we don't like our third roommate.. it is just because it kind of moved in without asking and it is not paying rent.. Soo we did what we though was right:

1. Finding out what mousetrap is called in spanish! = Trampa para Rata.
3. Finding a place to buy it = Corte Ingles.
4. Setting the trap with cheese and waiting.

- Well it took Mouse only about a few hours to find a way to get the cheese and not getting caught in the trap...

Next steps was as follow:

5. Googled what kind of food to use to catch a mouse.
6. NOT CHEESE apparently but salami or raisins should do the trick.
7. Set the trap again, this time with salami (Fuet which I REALLY like)
8. Wait

Mouse now called Mousi tasted the Fuet, didn't seem to like it ( as much as me) and didn't set off the trap.. hmmm

The problem was now.. that Mousi kind of got a small place in our hearts for being so bright and still very small.. so now we couldn't get our self to set the trap again - because then it would die..!

So thank you Thina for being a very creative Mouse catcher partner in crime.. just please don't use all the Fuet!
