Where are the Mice?

 Sooo... as you may recall after we got back from Mexico in late December, Cocoa and Navy decided to stay in Vancouver with Dwarf Beanie but... I can't find them anywhere.... so Sherlock Sandy put on his cap and went on a hunt! Oh, there's Kiwi!!

So good to see you!!!! But do you know where the mice are??

"I haven't seen them for a while actually... but they are easy to miss."

Ummm... those two mice might be small, but they are not "easy to miss"!!

I asked this bear (cause dragons can be a bit spinny sometimes) but he had no clue what I was talking about, being new to the household!

This is harder than I thought!

Wait... what's this... a postcard!! I recognize this card!! I received one from Beanie Mouse too!!

Well, at least I know that they mice have been here!

Oooohh... a mouse!!! Hi mouse!!

Maybe mouse knows... where are Cocoa and Navy Beanie??

"Oh those two!! Well... you know... we hung out for the longest time but then... now that you mention it... I haven't seen them for... oh... I guess about a month. I thought maybe they went back home?"

"But... let's see... a month ago... that would have been about the time that Lexy arrived..."

Uh-oh...

Lexy... do you know...

Oh heck, she's such a bubble head puppy you can't get any sense out of her. And she's giving me the eye...

I got Mama to distract Lexy while I went and checked out her play area... and it was not pretty... A mauled cow... who hasn't seen any mice...

A tattered bunny! Who ran as soon as I approached, whimpering with fear. Ugh!

Could it be? Is it possible that Cocoa and Navy were... umm... seen as dog toys???

If found a coherent flying squirrel but he's new to the household too... and hasn't seen any mice...

I am going to have to confront Lexy and get her to focus...

From a distance mind you... Lexy... have you eaten the mice???

And she lunged at me!!!

Right then... more investigation required...

Cause this does not look good!!!

I dug deeper and found this stuffed duck.

Maybe the duck knows something?

GASP!!!! It's a decapitated duck!!!!

Honestly, I'm terrified for those two mice!!! And then I heard a voice going "Psssstt... bear!"

What's this??? A hand puppet??

"Yo, bear... you lookin' for those mice?"

Yes!!! Do you know where they are???

"Raahhhhhhh!!! They were eaten!!!"

Noooooooooo!!!!! Say it isn't so!!!

"Nah!!! Just pulling your leg!!!! heheh..."

Oh, you've got to be kidding me!!!! Well where are they then???!!!

"I heard they went with Rose for a trip to the Okanagan!!! They are soaking up some sunshine!"

Oh, well... that's a huge relief!! Although... they could have left me a note or sent a postcard or something!!! Hmph... mice... But... whew!!!!
