An axolotl, originally from the Mexico city area, were they are almost extinct due to extreme changes in their environment.
They make nice little pets and can be bred in aquariums.

Oh, that's dissapointing. I could just hear the Roll Call Sergeant now, reminding the officers to check their vehicles before leaving for shift... :smile:

Feral cat on the windowsill of my in-laws' place, unimpressed with the rain.

Feral cat on the windowsill of my in-laws' place, unimpressed with me sneaking up and photographing it.

I backed away slowly so it didn't feel the need to go out into the rain.

Apparently the marmalade one abandoned its post. Same day, same weather, same windowsill, different cat.

All you cat lovers need to head over to the Quantum Physics section. Ol' Schrödinger's cat has really been making a showing lately.

I'd say it was predictable.
Yeah, she may be a sincere animal lover with good intentions, but you don't release a prey animal in the middle of an open field...

Sure. It revealed a lack of biological understanding. My thought was simply that the magpie wants to survive, too. If you're a mouse or a fish then you have drawn the a** card as we say here. (It is assumed that it refers to the red card that a football (sorry, soccer) referee uses to send off players and which is usually placed in the back pocket of his shorts. But that's a hypothesis. Everybody uses "drawn the a** card" for miserable situations but nobody actually knows were it came from.)

I think that the cat is trying to protect the mouse from that insane woman's laugh. :oldruck:
