Recommended as a good source of dietary fibre for an active rodent's diet.


I wonder if there is some sizing in the paper or other component that they find so tasty? Or just that their teeth keep growing and they have to chew on something?

Do they smell the gum residue on the stamps perhaps?

Oh my

I'm glad I have cat's that are great hunters. The only rodents I see are left disembodied at my doorstep.

disembodied

I think that Dianne meant disemboweled. But since cats can see in both worlds it could indeed have been disembodied.

Yes that's what I wanted to write. I just couldn't spell it. The French in me comes out sometimes

Thanks Puzzler.

Dianne

BTW great pic Rod. Where do you find this stuff.

Hey, it's nice someone smiles at my stuff
I am usually cracking up at James' quips
he has a wicked sense of humour.

Not sure where I got that image, had it for some years,
it may have been posted on an old forum
concerning mice on stamps,
why do I keep this stuff

Nothing philatelic here, but seeing Rodney's mouse reminded me of this youtube offering (for anyone who hasn't seen it):

A great little souvenir sheet / miniature sheet from Mali.

Notice the word Cat on the stamp. Poor fellows lost their Latin dictionary for feline horribilus (from the mouse's point of view that is).
