Recent scientific advances

My regular perusal of publications in my field of research led to my reading the work of scientists at the University of Tokyo. These researchers have genetically removed neurological connectors from mice, leading to their inability to smell, and thus fear, cats.
I prefer my prey live and well, as nature made 'em. After all, that's what I learned in college. At Hunter College.

Another recent advance has led to the development of "supermice".

The mouse can run up to six kilometres (3.7 miles) at a speed of 20 metres per minute for five hours or more without stopping. Scientists said that this was equivalent of a man cycling at speed up an Alpine mountain without a break. Although it eats up to 60 per cent more food than an ordinary mouse, the modified mouse does not put on weight. It also lives longer and enjoys an active sex life well into old age – being capable of breeding at three times the normal maximum age.
