What are the odds of this?
Last night set the mouse trap to catch one of the little furry thieves in our kitchen, and instead I caught two mice, in the same trap, at the exact same time. What are the odds of this one do you suppose?

Looks like a date gone horribly wrong. A sad parallel of the Italian restaurant scene in 101 Dalmations.
I always heard that "while the early bird gets the worm, the second mouse gets the cheese". Apparently, it ain't always so.

Why? Do the mice need a friend? That seems to be the purpose of our cats.
As for the trap, remember, it's twofer Tuesday.

"You first."
"No, you first."
"No, you first."

I've got a "double-header" before- seems like it usually happens with younger mice.

The food pickings must be getting hard to find at your house for them to start competing.
