Is this micro dot security

Yup, thats how my hunting dog ended up with two kitties, they just appeared in the backyard and started getting rid of mice, we started giving them food and they stayed, after that my dog pretty mutch adopted them, i had to make the dog house bigger since now they sleep piled on top of eachother. Side effect is that now i have a dog and two cats that act like dogs.

I hope the mouse hunters union has a good deal on chin scratches and sunlit napping spots

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 19 points 3 days ago

Oh yea, they've had that deal for a long time. Like all recorded time.

One fall, as the weather cooled, I started getting mice. I trapped 2 or 3 a week for about a month, it was really annoying.

Went to the shelter, came home with a cat.

Now the house is free of mice. I usually get one or two every fall, but this year I didn't get any. The cat is a better mouse repellent than anything I've ever seen.

A reminder for everyone, many animal shelters have working cats up for adoption. They are either semi-feral or feral but they will hunt.

The mouse violated the micro dot security. Let that be a lesson to everyone.
