Have you seen this mouse?

My husband learned a valuable lesson about impulse purchases. He went to the pet store for tutle food and my son talked him into $60 worth of food, cage and a pet mouse. I was shocked. Do you know how many mice we have killed on purpose at the cabin? I was against it. My allergies went crazy which I later determined was from the mouse bedding. It lasted a week. There was just no way to keep his wheel clean and he STUNK! So we taped him into a shoe box and carefully cleaned his cage the night before we planned to return him to the pet store. The next morning, one problem. No mouse! He chewed his way out. Now I had a mouse in my house on purpose. Ick! Luckily, Collin found the mouse that afternoon. Woohoo! The little guy was under the bed. Cute or not, we were happy to return him to the pet store.
