Cat & Mouse

Last year we decided to take a cat, after having had dogs for over 15 years.

To us that made perfect sense as we are living in the campo. Cats will chase away rats and mice so they will stay away from the house, and also prevent them from knibbling on the irrigation system in the summer.

But how different is reality. I have never seen so many mice in our house. 
Instead of chasing them away, the cat brings them home! Fully alive!

So there’s a dilemma:
Watch the cruelty and wait until the cat is finished playing with the mouse?
Or get the cat out and run the risk that the mouse is going to hide somewhere in the house?
