Life in the Mouse House

Uh oh... One of the mice is sick. Very sick. She is shivering... but that wasn't the biggest clue.
This mouse, the little terror that would - who ran the wheel non-stop for days (Jillian, the biggest loser trainer, couldn't run this much!) - stopped. This little mouse, who I have never held but merely steered to where she needed to go, allowed me to scoop her into my hands.

Mice stink - literally. They are messy. They are VERY noisy. I would never recommend a mouse for anyone's house... much less, four!

Yet, I am sad that this little one is sick. I wish I could help her feel better. I hope she drives me crazy on the wheel again.

Amazing that a mouse can creep into your heart. Or at least mine.

Mouse update... The mouse seems better this morning. We have named her Jillian, in honor of Jillian from the Biggest Loser. She runs that treadmill like nobody's business!!! :)
