Well.. My daughter about a month ago lost her bird, long story short, she left the cage open one day after feeding it and it got out, we couldn't catch it, so it flew out the window. Since then baby girl has been heartbroken we promised her a pet on her birthday! What ever pet she wants, oddly enough she said she's wants a pet mouse. She's been annoying us like crazy, her birthday isn't till December and we're trying to get her to want a hamster, or maybe a Guinea pig instead of a mouse. ANYWAYS! She cleaned the bird cage out and it's just been sitting there waiting to go to the shed, this morning I was woke up by my 5 year old son saying " mom! Chloe had a mouse! She caught a mouse!" Wait .. What?!? We go look and all be damned if there isn't a mouse in the bird cage!!!!! 😂😂😂! Yes we live out in the country and do get the occasional mice families especially when the corn comes out of the fields, we handle that with mice traps! Anywho. I can't get over this!. They say they didn't touch it or catch it, they saw it in there and locked it up. Not to sure if I'm believing this. Sad part is baby girl is so happy!!! She had her mouse. But um. We are not keeping it, I hate when I get put into these situations where I'm gonna have to break her heart.😳
