Mouse

You begin to wonder if you're spending too much time with your cats when you have to catch a mouse before breakfast.

OK, so in this case it was a rescue mission - fend off two homicidal moggies, bend self round several pieces of furniture and stretch arm under sideboard, eventually grab mouse, close cats out of kitchen, unlock back door while retaining grip on mouse with one hand, release mouse onto grass. Re-catch mouse, which has decided to run the wrong way and sit in plain view, and re-release in hedge (mouse sits on open hand and wiffles appealing at you).
