    Once you have more mice than cats, the cats can’t win if the mice are sufficiently motivated to put in an effort. That’s why mice still exist even though cats have been around for millenia—only one mouse needs to escape the net. (Well, okay, a breeding pair if you’re dealing with actual mice, but it’s a lot less than the total number of mice.)
