			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>We have told you before about our strange animals. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Sport, our strange dog, took Sassy (the cat) in, as if she were his baby, when she showed up at our house. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>He carried her around like a puppy,  allowed her to paw him as if she were nursing, and to curl up next to him and sleep in his bed.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>This is a photo of them cuddling, that I took with my cellphone in January:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2962" title="IMG00038-20100102-0143" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/IMG00038-20100102-0143-1024x768.jpg" alt="IMG00038-20100102-0143" width="614" height="461" /> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Well. . .</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Now Sassy has taken in a baby of her own</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2963" title="Mouse" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse-1024x682.jpg" alt="Mouse" width="614" height="409" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Yep, that&#8217;s a mouse. . . </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>And he and Sassy have  bonded.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="size-large wp-image-2964 aligncenter" title="Mouse1" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse1-682x1024.jpg" alt="Mouse1" width="409" height="614" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>When Sassy showed up at our house this summer, and we decided to keep her, everyone kept telling us that Calico cats were good &#8220;mousers.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Good &#8220;mouser&#8221; . . . </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong> Yeah, she&#8217;s a really good &#8220;mouser.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2965" title="Mouse2" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse2-682x1024.jpg" alt="Mouse2" width="409" height="614" /><br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>So this is what happened:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>Sassy wanted to sleep in the bathroom on Wednesday night, </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>after wanting to be in the bathroom all day on Wednesday, </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>even though I was home all day and she could have stayed out.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>(We keep in her in the bathroom when we aren&#8217;t home- that&#8217;s where her litter box  and bed are.)</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2966" title="Mouse3" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse3-682x1024.jpg" alt="Mouse3" width="409" height="614" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>So anyway, we woke up Thursday morning and she was making a big racket in the bathroom, </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>like she often does in the middle of the night. . . </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>But, this time when we went in, </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>she was playing with her little friend. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2967" title="Mouse6" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse6.jpg" alt="Mouse6" width="598" height="399" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>After getting over the initial shock, and the realization that Sassy was not trying to hurt the mouse AT ALL;</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>we were running late, so we left them in the bathroom and went to work. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2968" title="Mouse7" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse7-1024x682.jpg" alt="Mouse7" width="614" height="409" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>When we got home 14 HOURS LATER, they were STILL PLAYING. . .</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>So, now, the next day, the Cat and Mouse are still in the bathroom together, the mouse is still unharmed, </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>and since we are snowed in, we have been sneaking in there and watching them play for entertainment. </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>There is NOTHING in this world more BIZARRE to watch, than a CAT &amp; MOUSE PLAYING NICE. . . </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>IN YOUR BATHROOM</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2969" title="Mouse4" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse4.jpg" alt="Mouse4" width="362" height="544" /></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2971" title="Mouse5" src="http://dumbyoungins.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Mouse5-1024x682.jpg" alt="Mouse5" width="614" height="409" /><br />
