From Changchun, NE China via Ananova:
Mr Li, of Changchun in north east China, was annoyed by the mouse which had sneaked into his house through a broken window.
“It was very foxy. I tried many ways to catch it, but it always escaped and then gained revenge on me by gnawing at the family utilities,” he told Huashang Daily.
Li came up with the idea of borrowing his neighbour’s cat, Da Huang, after paying them a visit.
To make the cat more enthusiastic for the task, Li asked his neighbour to starve the cat overnight before he borrowed it.
The next morning, Da Huang caught the rodent but let it go after smelling it – and to Li’s surprise the mouse then started attacking the cat.
“Da Huang neglected his duty. He just pats the mouse off and after a while they just started playing together. Now they are friends and the cat even cuddles up with the mouse to sleep,” he said.
