7. And a dog?

He'd glance at the toaster, give it a sniff, and then go on with his life. And three weeks later 7 dozen mice will have conquered the kitchen.

I currently live on the third floor of a three story apartment building. Everyone has a patio or balcony. My two cats spend a small amount of time on my balcony every day. The pigeons no longer spend any time on my balcony.

I've only lived here about six months, and my cats still have not forgiven me for moving them from a small home with a front and back yard with lots of small mammals for them to kill and consume.
