Louis Catorze still hasn’t caught the rat. I expect most of you probably knew that anyway.

I was starting to feel quite ashamed to have a cat that didn’t do its ONE JOB, but it seems I am not alone in suffering from such feline uselessness.
Zelva, who is probably not far off the same age as Catorze, has never caught a thing in her life. Not only that, but she and her supposed prey socialise together. I KNOW.

Otis and Roux are devastatingly efficient at catching prey. However, they then bring them into the house and release them, leaving the humans to figure out where they are and how to trap and remove them. There is a large mouse (or perhaps a small rat – nobody is quite sure) currently hiding behind the tumble dryer at Otis and Roux’s place, and neither cat is doing the slightest thing about it. Roux even went as far as to clamp her jaws around it, lock eyes with one of the humans, then release it again.
Does my family have the most incompetent cats in the world? Or are they doing this on purpose, just to spite us?
