Hoarder Cat Kept 34 Catnip Mice Under Couch for Years

WAUKESHA, Wisconsin - Friends and family in The Badger State were shocked and appalled during a recent move to discover their unassuming cat had been hoarding catnip mice under the couch since early 2014. "I really don't see it as a problem like you're making it out to be," protested Roberto the cat from under a mountain of 34 catnip mice toys. "These are my friends and they liked it under there," he hissed. Algernon #12 - one of the many catnip mice recovered - disagreed: "He swatted me under this couch fourteen months ago and hasn't talked to me since." The freed mice were relocated to a toy box where they are expected to lay untouched for the next three years.
