Anyone know of a good mouser!?

We had just finished family scriptures and prayers and sent the little ones to bed when Rebekah came in and said that she had seen a mouse in her bathroom. It was hilarious to hear five people in a tiny (closet turned bathroom) trying to catch a mouse with Joe. The mouse was caught. A big one so I am told. (I have claustrophobia issues and did not want to cram in with the others...Susie was put in the sink and I could hear random squeals and squeaks from her," I see it! I see mouse! Right there!") Hannah was worried it would run over her feet. Rebekah was concerned for it's safety. (It's a love/fear relationship with her). When caught, Hannah wanted to shake the box into oblivion and totally disorient the mouse. Rebekah, of course, began crying and wanted to know if it would be safe (and NOT given to Uncle Mike for free snake food). In the end, EVERYBODY, no shoes and all got in the car and we drove to the mouth of Provo Canyon and let it go...Hmm, are we wusses or what! Soo, anyone know where we can get a good mouser?!

Sounds very entertaining! Hopefully that is the only mouse you have!

Awww! How sweet of Rebekah to be concerned for the critter. It was mighty kind of her parents to make a special trip for its release into the great outdoors.
