Sticky Honeycomb Trap
I scrambled down from the bathroom sink and darted into the cool kitchen pantry chasing a sweet, golden smell! High on a low wire rack sat a squishy silicone honeycomb trivet resting under an open jar of honey. I leaped belly-first right onto the yellow rubber hexagons—PLOP! The soft pockets flexed beneath my claws, and a thick, sticky drop smeared straight onto my paw! Every time I tried to peel a foot away, the rubbery cups made a loud, juicy SCHLUCK. I chirped wildly, rolling onto my side and hugging the stretchy silicone mat tight against my chest, completely glued to the sweet, gummy treasure!
