We have Brooklyn mice. Even if we had cats, they're smarter than cats, dogs and ferrets. We've already weeded out the weak ones (they're the ones who get killed every year.) The ones we have have survived for six years straight. They have superspeed and (apparently) super strength. They get caught in traps and get out, leaving fur behind.
