Bagpuss is to blame for his lax and lenient policy on mice.
The so-called 'mouseorgan' was nothing but a WMD. Those things on the top are not organ pipe's - they're rocket launchers - probably with nuclear capability.
The mice have the upper paw now, and it's all Bagpuss's fault

Monkeys are fighting back too. Today's BBC site has an article on a Chinese street performer who was beaten senseless by his monkeys, with sticks he had used to beat them. Serves the scumbag right!
(Finding the article is left as an exercise for the reader.)

The mice fight back
Mice may be responsible for a blaze that killed nearly 100 cats at an animal shelter near the Canadian city of Toronto, officials say.
The fire at the humane society shelter in Oshawa also killed three dogs and some rats that were up for adoption.
An initial report from the fire marshal says mice or rats chewing through electrical wires in the ceiling are likely to have sparked the blaze.
Offers of help have been pouring in from animal lovers across Canada.
"It's unfortunate and ironic that mice caused the fire that killed the cats," Toronto Humane Society spokesman Ian McConachie told the BBC News website.
"Unfortunately, the mice probably perished in the fire as well," he added.
The $250,000 (£137,000) fire is still under investigation by the Ontario Fire Marshal's office.
Mr McConachie said it would be some days before a final report would be released.
In all, only nine dogs, two cats and one rat were rescued in Wednesday's early morning blaze.
They are being housed in a nearby municipal shelter, while volunteers rebuild the burnt-down shelter for the Humane Society of Durham Region.
