Jazzy and Cuffy discuss mouse fugitive

Cuffy was worried as she said, “Jazzy, I overheard WH and DH discussing the fact that they have seen the mouse that got away the other night twice. They have concluded that we have fallen down on the job and are getting old, lazy or both. This is so embarrassing. What can we do?” Being the more confident cat in the house, I replied, “Cuffy, calm down. They are not exactly spring chickens or bundles of energy either, so they understand. Either we will get that mouse and be treated like heroes or we won’t and will be treated with sympathy. Looks like a win/win situation to me.”
