I forgot to post about this! (a mouse story)

So I was taking care of this little white mouse for a few days and I'll just get right to it.

THE DAY I got it, I put it in what I thought was a secure tank. Hah. I walked into my room a few hours later to find it...

ONTOP OF MY CURTAIN ROD.

As soon as I got it back down I laughed so hard haha! I guess he got out and climbed up my curtains and was just chillin' at the top! Brave little thing too though, as many of you know I also have a snake(this mouse was NOT snake food) and he was located directly above the place where I keep the snake. Either a very brave mouse, or a very stupid one!

No I'm not taking care of the mouse anymore.

It's good the mouse didn't get lost/eaten. In the future, you may want to keep any mouse in a more secure enclosure, away from the snake.

Well the snake was locked in. But when I came in he was sniffing the top of the cage.

Yeah, I put a rock on the lid after that.

Re: I forgot to post about this! (a mouse story)

I'm sorry, not to be rude, but I wouldn't find the situation funny. If any animal of mine (or one I was entrusted to look after) got loose, especially in the same house as a predator animal, I wouldn't be laughing.

Re: I forgot to post about this! (a mouse story)

Well thats you. I'm just glad he didn't get on the floor. I'd have never found him if he was on the floor.

And the predator animal is a very small ball python that is LOCKED in it's tank. The only danger this mouse could have gotten in was if it found a wire and chewed on it or I lost it or something. I'm just glad he went ontop of my curtains instead.

I like your mouse story. Accidents happen, I'm glad the mousie was found safe.
