Long ago when my wife and I moved into our house, after we moved Kaybee the cat in, I witnessed a mouse run from under the dishwasher over to the cat's dish, steal a piece of food, and run back.

I went and got the cat, took him to the kitchen, and sat on the floor with him to show him the mouse. The mouse repeated the theft, but Kaybee was still too freaked out from the change of residence to react.

A few days later I found a dead mouse on the floor with a piece of cat food in its mouth. I interpreted that as Kaybee's way of saying, "I'm back on duty. All you mouse bastards are on notice."
