Reply to comment by baldude69 in Philly area has highest percentage of cat owners in U.S. by taskermorrisrider222

First year I lived in south Philly the mice came in around this time of year. Got a cat a month later, haven't seen one since.

You'll never see a mouse again unless it's dead or partially dead. Cats will find a mouse (or bugs, in my experience) before you do.

A classic saying goes, "Dogs protect you from what you CAN see. Cats protect you from what you CAN'T see."

My cats are still adapting to the clever city mice instead of the stupid desert mice they grew up with, but they're learning. At least I don't need them for scorpion detail anymore.
