Mouse has a definite death wish

This morning there was quite a commotion in the cat enclosure. I could hear items being knocked over and cats running around. I looked out the window and saw them all chasing something within the enclosure. It was a shrew- poor thing. I ran outside to see if I could possibly save it when it ducked underneath the introduction cage.

The cats immediately circled the cage and paws began to search for the elusive rodent. The space is so narrow, I had nothing I could slide underneath it to try and snag the shrew and carry it to safety. Hopefully, it will stay under there until the cats’ noon meal then beat feet out there. It’s been raining pretty hard here (rare for this time of year) and it is still a bit cold. I am sure it came in to get warm without realizing what it was getting into! I need mice detour signs outside I guess.
