@notatanuki Liked for a cat.
Tom had been hearing something rustling outside.
The house cat opened up the window and looked to his right. ❝ …..… ❞
⸻and when his head finally cocked itself to the left, is when he spotted the little Eurasian harvest mouse outside in the front yard.
Now believe it or not, Tom really only ever gave into temptation when his stomach was actively hungry. But it was technically his job to keep mice out of Ginger’s house so Tom guessed it was time to play bouncer before he gets too emotionally attached to this new mouse.
Tom quickly ran his way to the front door and opened it, immediately looking down at the mouse judgingly and stomping his foot down hard on Cinnamon's tail to stop him from moving any further (obviously Tom's point was to make the mouse leave the house but not before scaring Cinnamon a bit). Tom didn’t care if the mouse seemed to be holding a tiny sword. Mice puncturing him with tiny weapons was called Tuesday for this cat. —He can handle anything Cinnamon can throw at him
