Joy and the little mouse ...

[Cornelia]

Yesterday, when I went outside into our garden, there was this young mouse on our pateo, probably only a few weeks old.

Of course the first thing I did think of, was aiming for a portrait, but this proved to be very difficult with all these blades of grass.

Then I thought it might be hungry and went inside to fetch some cheese fom the fridge.

Hearing the fridge and smelling the cheese brought Joy on the scene in no time and what else I could I do in a situation like that, but feeding them both!

I don't know what went on in that redhead of mine, but Joy was fascinated by the quietly nibbeling youngster, who seemed neither afraid nor tickelish.

So here's our setters new occupation: Guarding a mouse!
