Mystery Mouse

Ashton: What is it, Newt?

Newton: I don’t know. It has a tail like a mouse, but it smells like treats.

Ashton: It doesn’t squeak like a mouse.

Newton: When is the last time you caught a mouse?

Newton: If I can’t get the treat goodness out of it, I’ll just eat the whole thing.

    Eat it whole? Well that would be one way to get at the treats!

    Looks like you’ve got it covered, Newton! But why’s it being so stubborn in sharing its food with you?! Talk about disrespect.

    We prefer our “Kibble Egg”. You bat it around and kibbles magically come out. Ans we have a puzzle box too.
