Someone to donate their barn... Lol, thanks for the chuckle. Where
else but on a list like ours would you find someone who would consider
purposely "infesting" a barn with re-located mice :)? Maybe you could
build a big mouse shelter on your property where you could put a
protected food source, with lots of nooks and crannies to keep them
happy and warm. Maybe they'd be so pleased with their new territory
they'd decide "their" house was better than yours.
I'm sorry for your dilemma, but it is giving me a nice warm holiday
feeling thinking of those mice finding their way into such a loving
human's protection. Once you start naming them and discovering their
individual personalities, you'll be calling those clever cat habitat
architects to construct yet another sanctuary. Is there such a thing as
a mouse hoarder?
Hugs to you and your hubby Kelly,
Nina

Oh, there will be more! Mice and rats make lovely companions, (I had
them when I was a kid too). Unless you are thinking of re-homing
these babies, I'd make sure they have access to the outside!
Still picturing the little bowl of mousie condoms :),

(my mother hated cats, my father didn't like dogs--so my first pets
were mice.... in the fantasy cyberworld i spend an inordinate
amount of time in, MeowChat, two of my cats raise and train show
mice--and yes, there REALLY are himalayan and siamese show mice....
the ones who don't do well in conformation are phenomenal in agility
trials.... my cats are also quite opposed to well-fed housecats
feasting on other living things, and serve tofu birds and mice at
all our gatherings....)

by the way, my comment was not to dissuade you from saving and
relocating them. I would never, ever kill a mouse, and am glad
you are not either. I am just worried about the domestication
issue in terms of uncontrolled reproduction.
