I don't like them at all. Had some in the chicken coop when I was homesteading. They

creep me out.

tiny critters

need large heroes. Everything has a right to live the life God gave them. I watch the mice sometime in our barn. Just thro some cheese down by the hay and watch them do their little dance of intrigue sneaking up on the cheese. So cute... then you hear the rustling noise under the hay, and you wait to see the little mousie...and out comes this hideous gray thing with fangs and red eyes, about a foot tall with the ugliest chewed up tail and it is after the mouse, doesn't even look at the bloodless cheese, and you realize you just baited the poor mouse! the flat faced shovel makes such a satisfying thud as you do your best impression of Arnold Palmer teeing off as RAT goes airborn!!Run mouse run ~!!!

You are so good with your little animals.  Someone else would have run for a mouse trap.

Well I quite like shrews and field mice ,but the ordinary little critter that nips the strawberries off and smells if left to breed has to be dwelt with with with a little trap called The Nipper . One sniff of the cheese and whack.  I hate poisoning things.

A whole lot of excitement with the mouse there...I am not keen on touching mice either.

I also take a liking to some little critters from time to time,

but when they creep in my house and around my food, I'm not so hospitable. I can just see you sitting there to defend against the crows...

Oh my Kabu you have the softest heart anywhere. May you be blessed abundantly in all areas you have needs.

At Mouse Church, where the church mice gather, they're singing hymns of praise to St. Kabu...

Oh, that wee critter is grateful to you, I know.  I once had a lovely pet mouse named Charlotte after the you know what from CHARLOTTE'S WEB.  She was a black and white beauty.
