WAR

Posted by Charles Mudede on Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 9:13 AM

Mice are the prime suspects in deadly cat fire:

Mice may be responsible for a blaze that killed nearly 100 cats at an animal shelter near the Canadian city of Toronto, officials say...

...An initial report from the fire marshal says mice or rats chewing through electrical wires in the ceiling are likely to have sparked the blaze.

However, it was a Pyrrhic victory: "[T]he mice probably perished in the fire as well."

The mice WANT you to think they died. They had to get in the house somehow, and I don't think those entrances were locked.

Mice and rats always get out, unfortunately. Every time there's construction in my neighborhood, shit gets gross.
