Oh my gosh! Eight weeks old and got her first mouse? She probably wasn’t that much bigger than the mouse! She definitely has the instinct. I have the feeling that she will be “gifting” you with plenty of them!
We rescued her from a warehouse where she had been abandoned, apparently for several weeks, so we were not entirely surprised at her survival skills. She is now a year old, well-fed, and quite content to watch the birds and chipmunks outside until we get home in the afternoon.
