Miricle Mouse!
I hadn’t been home after Cornwall for long periods so like the plants I hadn’t seen the little mouse Percival I had saved for a little while. He needed a good clean out which doesn’t take me long now. At first when I got him out of the cage he used to bolt but now I put him in a warm towel by the cage as I clean it out.
By doing this he more or less falls asleep every time and remains very calm. Which is the main thing. Not what I need an injured wild mouse running around my bloody house!
While I was away I put plenty of food in his cage but when I got back my mother had also been around and had obviously put more food in the cage. I actually think he is now twice the bloody size! You can’t really see him in the picture below but he is a lot bigger (fatter).
