    Default Tea and cookies for Mr. Mouse?



    This vid made reminiscence one freezy winter day, a mouse was running circles on a icy road. I stopped and it climbed on top of my shoes. I reached my hand down and it climbed on my glove. It must have been seriously freezing to behave such way. I made a hole through the snow by the side of the road and put the mouse there in the snowhole. There had formed a icy layer on top of the snowbanks. I think this was problems for the mouse; the snow surface was too hard for the mouse to make a home for itself.


    So I left the mouse there in the snowhole.

    But now onto the moral dilemma. I was wondering if there are any bleeding-hearted leftist here who feel I did the wrong, and instead I should have brought the house to my home in my pocket or something, and made some warm tea for him?

    The mouse may have died anyway.... I would have taken him home, but that's just me. You can't save them all.

    I don't think tea is good for mice.

    (LOL, you don't have to be a leftist to have a heart for God's creatures.)

    Ring tailed possums are classed as a noxious pest here. They are run over every night, especially in the countryside. People actually aim for them.

    I on the otherhand, will come to a screaming halt with that dumbass creature looking crosseyed at me in the headlights. Honk the horn and it runs away.

    I can't use my car as a weapon against such creatures. However, I do shoot them (and we have saved the odd orphaned baby as a pet)
    Nine out of ten concerns are completely unfounded.

    A sort of related I think. I was yesterday reading about a hobo and a artist (painter) who was a sort of a local folk cult legend here. He was born 1900. After his mom died when he was twelve his stepdad threw him out of the house and he became homeless living in forests, fishing and sleeping in barns etc. After some time he started painting and supported himself by going house to house and making paintings of the houses.
    Anyway the guy lived homeless to age 76 after which he felt so old, sick and tired that he went to retirement house and tried to live there for a while. But found out he couldn't, and instead went back to nature living as beast. Finally the guy froze to death age 83, year 1983. This guy was legend where I grew up and there was all kind of stories about him circulating long after his death.

    No! That's always a mistake. I tried doing that with a mouse years ago and he turned into a plague. They aren't cute. They're vermin.

    You already helped the little bugger by making it a shelter, nature is harsh we can't save everything.

    I had to kill three of the neighbours' cats, they kept roaming into my backyard to try and eat these firendly birds my family coaxed into bathing and feeding in our garden. I wish the actual neighbours were as easy to dispose of.
