I am sitting here with a baby mouse in my lap - my killer cat brought one in yesterday and I managed to save him but this one is still alive but not good - just wondering what to do - he so sweet and so tiny

well he's still moving slightly and is tryng to open his eyes - have a feeling I'm going to be mouse-nursing for some time!!

Good morning Ann

...aww poor little mite,if he has hair I'd put him in a box and mebbe he'll recover and hop away (but feel sure some folk out there will have other ideas) xx

cotton wool, a box and somewhere quite..wet its lips with water,,,,,holding it will dehydrate it...

if its female one,it may survive as we're know to be the more stronger of the sexes, }},,,if it dont just think of all them unwanted meecies that wont be born at the rate of knots....:}}

thanks for the advice - never thought of water - shall do that now - his whiskers are twitching a bit - think he's a bit of a fighter this one

well with the help of a neighbour we have given him some water and some milk - he really liked the milk - he started moving aroung quite a bit so I have put him under the shed at the bottom of the garden

I'm thinking he's the same one my cat brought in yesterday, so won't be at all surprised if I see him again!!!

Aww poor wee thing but.....if he survives that means more and more and more mice..ewwwww

You sure it isn't a juvenile rat.....? It can be difficult to tell the difference of you aren't familiar with them.

Beware of Weils disease! Mice are carriers as well.

If its a field mouse, wood mouse or a vole. Its very unlikely to invade your home.

If was a house mouse, get another cat. lol

:o))

far too tiny to be a rat Eldrick - deffo a very young fieldmouse - didn't know you could get Weil's Disease from mice

Yes, mice are carriers of Weils. A very small baby rat looks just the same as a mouse - trust me on this one!

this one was just an inch long in the body - far too sweet to be a rat, although I do quite like rats too!!!
