Not sure about that but the second one gets the cheese.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Having a cat that sometimes catches one and then plays with them under my bed..
..the only good mouse is a dead one. I don't like having to chase a cat that is chasing a mouse. If it stops moving he looses interest and clean up is quick.
To answer your previous question; Goedzo is an elderly fat black cat, and his outside space is limited to five by five meters. And still he brings in 7 mice on average per year. Pet-fence, so he can't get out of the garden.

Scratch building studio models and then butchering a ton of plastic model kits to detail them is slowly been becoming a lost art. Here I sit now and use computer graphics to reproduce the model kit parts that they once used to detail the Space 1999 Eagle. So far I have seen parts of WW 2 fighter (probably a Spitfire), a Gemini capsule, The Apollo command and service modules, the lunar landing module, some parts of model tanks and even sections of WW II ship decks. There also are lots of pipes, pumps and pressure tanks of which I have read the name of the real manufacturer. Who knows what kits these parts came from, but you can probably see the real thing when you take a tour through the right factory.
That fun kind of model building has been on its way out for decades now. Just look who the rebels go to when they need a new ship now: Lucasfilm Design New Star Wars - YouTube[^]

After years of not doing any, I am returning to the world of building plastic model kits and dioramas to set them in. Actually the dioramas are almost more fun to scratch build than the kits. ...and boy, have the kits gotten expensive!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Dioramas, huh? I have a Frankenstein version (made mostly of prototype and misprinted parts) of my Space 1999 Eagle standing here on the floor. It's going to be around 33 inches long. 1:32 Figures should work well. let's build a diorama of an eagle on it's launchpad or, better yet, the moonbase's hangar.
My boss is going to kill me when I turn my office into one big diorama.

Just a silly question: do you have a pet? If so, what is it?
I know that Sander - @Sanderrossel - has a cat.
I have a cat, but I'm broadminded and don't mind dogs.
Just remember: a dog may be man's best friend, but a cat won't tell the police where you hide your drugs ...

none, but I'd consider trading my two mouldy oldies who live with me for a cat

I had a cat...
Second one ran away as well 
I suspect they get bullied away by the 10+ neighborhood cats...
Rest assured, the next cat won't be allowed outside for the first year or so and after that only with GPS...

You don't need a CyberCat. Just get the right cat[^].

To misquote Oscar Wilde: "To lose one cat may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness."
Perhaps you should consider a goldfish?

That's just adding insult to injury 
I've had some very bad weeks because of this incident.
It's not like I want to lose them, but cats go outside and in my case get scared off by neighbor cats or whatever.
Goblin was very social and I've kept him inside for for seven weeks, which should be enough for him to know it's his house and it's safe.
He's been outside for a bit a couple of times before, which went well.
In any case, I don't think his taking off was voluntary.
And I'm starting to doubt if Pink's was, which went exactly the same (but after ten weeks)...
Needless to say, my next cat won't be going outside in the first year or so and after that only with a GPS collar...
