Give her a mouse then ram a rat down straight after, or stick them together with cotton thread

Get a rat with a mouse hat/coat

Put 4 mice in a bag of warm water till they almost melt and scent the rat with this

I have heard that braining pinkies and rubbing this on the rat works well. Sorry if someone has already mentioned this lol
