Mouse Hunt
This week was filled with finals, today I have my last one; Research Methods from 15h00 till 18h00 *ugh* I planned on studying yesterday, but I was totally distracted when I found out there was a strange very small hole near the window in the living-room AND there were mouse-droppings laying around !!! Somehow I mouse got in our house ~ I’ve been away during X-mas recess, so… it wasn’t me 
I immediately asked my roommate if he knew about the hole, he didn’t - so I closed it, cleaned up all the mouse-droppings and bought some mousetraps. We think the mouse hides in our old kitchen, because we found some droppings on top of the kitchen cabinets. Nothing inside the cabinets, because those are closed pretty well. My roommate was manly enough to set up the traps - 4 in total! But, after a night rest we haven’t caught the little critter yet. I’m sure it’s still there - somewhere… *eeep* 
Maybe the mouse got in when the window was open and tried to get out by making a hole near the window when it was closed. No complaints of our neighbours yet, since we live in an apartment complex. Anyway we’re keeping our eyes open and hopefully the issue will be resolved. Even though I’m a dog lover, I’m seriously thinking about getting a cat!

Good luck with your Research Methods exam. I took that class two years ago. It was boring but I did fairly well in it
Also good luck catching your mouse. I hope you find it soon! There’s a mouse where I work. I see him every now and then, but I don’t think he ever dies lol. If he did, I’m sure we would know because they STINK!

I hate myself. I don’t mind them when they are behind bars or something but can’t stand them when they are running wild. My mom sometimes gets mice in her house in the winter so I’m hoping that that doesn’t happen. Ugh.

If you happen to stumble upon that mouse, you should yell at him, for distracting you admist your study time. Best of luck on your exam. I’m sure you’ll do fine.

Mice are scary little creatures. I hope you catch it in no time. I own a cat
But, she’s a terrified little thing and she’s scared of such critters.
Dogs and cats are both very helpful.
Good luck with the mouse! And I hope it leaves your apartment.

A mouse in your apartment? I hope you were successful and already got it.
A cat is nice, but it’s really ugly if it gets a mouse. Ari used to bring so many mice during summer…. The thought of a mouse wandering around the house is scary, but it’s even scarier if you find its remains on the floor the next morning, because the cat got it faster than you…. x__x doesn’t look great… uh…

Eww, mouse in the house!? That really sucks. I hope it doesn’t contaminate all your food or something, must. catch. it.
Should call animal patrol or something similar to catch the mouse, it’s very ugly to have mice around, very creepy. I really hope you catch it (which, probably by now, you already have).
I don’t suggest getting a cat to catch it, it’s an ugly sight to see those two running around (reminds me of Tom and Jerry..), and wouldn’t it get all bloody? I don’t know, I don’t have a cat .. nor a mouse, so.. rule me out. xD
Hope you did well on your exams! Aren’t you glad it’s over for you?

Good luck on catching the mouse. I don’t know if it’s just me, but looking at a mouse’s or rat’s tail really creeps me out. It needs some fur on it or something…
Good luck on your finals also.
