icarusMousie report.
Some of you may recall this post wherein a family of mouse babies took up residence in one of my fleece jackets (in a box that happens to be outdoors). I discovered this when I pulled my jacket out of the box, scattering mouse infants everywhere. I removed my other jackets, packed the box with newspaper, and used newsprint to scoop the littles back in the box.
A week later I discovered I'd missed four mouse babies, who'd fallen into a box I took inside. Noooo....
Then the temperature dropped and I thought the outdoor mousies were history.
Three weeks later ...
I'm happy to report that the mouse babies survived, and have moved on. But the nest is clearly there, and there are no apparent corpses.
Proof of life: the fleece jacket was not so lucky, sacrificed to the cause. The Mousies chewed a few holes.
Unless Rainy Pass can fix it.
