Your cat strolls in with a tail hanging from her mouth. She drops a disgusting dead mouse on the floor. No wait, it's alive. The mouse runs into a corner so you act brave and call for help. The cat just sits there. Somewhat proud of herself.
Help arrives and tries smashing it under some books with a fist. It doesn't work. The mouse scampers into another corner. You try to find something with a long handle to thwack it with. You don't want your hands anywhere near the thing, because remember, you're brave.
Someone grabs a vaccum cleaner with a large hose. Flipping the switch on scares the mouse in your exact direction. It'd be logical to place a tupperware container over the mouse to trap it. Instead, you throw the tupperware container at the mouse. And jump in the air.
Your illogical actions scare the mouse into the screen sliding door. You quickly slide the glass door shut and trap it in the track between freedom and death. As it runs back and forth trapped, the cat chases it. All you can think is, "Has the cat done this before when I wasn't around?"
