Mouse Trap!

We've had mice in our house in the past few weeks, so naturally we've set up traps around the house. We put one in the pantry on the floor and I've always tried to be so careful to leave the door shut. Presley loves to get in the pantry and pull everything out. Well this morning, I thought she was in the family room watching tv, and turned my back for a bit. I left the pantry door open after I got out the pancake mix. About a minute later I hear - SNAP - and there is my sweet girl with the mouse trap hanging from her little finger and a look of terror on her face. My heart just about sunk into my stomach. I ran over and got it off her finger and held her so tight. She cried so hard for about a minute. Then, I gave her a binky and she seemed fine. I gave her a little Ibuprofen just to take the pain away cause I knew it had to be hurting her. I sat down and cried for a few minutes cause I felt SO BAD for turning my back and letting that happen... I still get sick to my stomach when I think of it!
