Our old cat used to sleep on top of Steves head after he pawed him hahaha
HUGGGGGGGGG
as long as it's outside your head!
Hope it's not in the actual walls. I live in an old farm house and when that happens I get no sleep. Very nice.r
I had this experience with a mouse! A loving poem, peaceful, and I can relate specifically!

PAPA GOOSE - "Under the Stove"
I prefer to think it's a timid little mouse, just wanting to get warm. A beautiful poem, as always!
Thank you, on behalf of all creatures furry and small
that try to survive a cruel winter by nesting within a wall.

You are a lucky one. R
Uh-oh. I was just passing by again when it occurred to me that I might be the "Animal Within the Walls" (MY walls?)
Still R
Yeah, a mouse. If it were a squirrel, it would have been SCRATCH!!! SCRAPE!!! TURN YOUR NEST UPSIDE DOWN AND TRY TO BREAK A HOLE IN THE WALL!!!
