Dear Sir/Madame,

Please forgive the intrusion into your home... I mean no harm whatsoever. But you see, things have become increasingly hard out there in the wild. You humans with your ever expanding population and subsequent clearing away of suitable habitat have made things very difficult for creatures large and small to find food and shelter. Therefore, can you really blame us when we seek the same in the one remaining place left, mainly your domicile?? I ask you to please consider this the next time you see me scurrying about your kitchen floor looking for crumbs from the table or darting across the living room into my secret hole in the wall. Instead of screaming hysterically and jumping up onto a chair or worse yet, calling for an exterminator to;... Gulp!...kill me, show some compassion. Remember that as a full grown man or woman, you are many times bigger, heavier, and stronger than I. It is I that should have more to fear from you than the opposite way around. So please, lighten up on the draconian measures will ya?

Signed
Eeek-a-mouse

... And if you need to get us out of your house please use the live cage traps and then let us out back into the wild, we`ll get the message :wink:

Just think of it, if we mice where not here what would you use for cute animated characters, a dog?, I do`nt think so,

And there is much more than that, I could go on,

Have I made myself clear humans?,

We mice have just as much a right to live as you. If you keep moving in and sticking your homes over ours, we'll keep moving in. Get used to the company.

We mice also would prefer that your 'cats' and 'dogs' know the difference between a free meal and hunting us down, destorying the house in the process. By a free meal, I am referring to all that god awful crap you humans are keen to feed your beloved 'cats' and 'dogs'.

Know what you mean by free meal, I can see why fresh meat is on the menu, come`on you dogs and cats try it, once we get you back to our line of defence all heck is going to break loose.
being at NIMH has taught us much :twisted: .

Dear Meeces:

While it is true that we humans are, shall we say, crowding your turf, we've also got lovely gardens, flower beds, trees, and numerous other places IN OUR YARDS in which you can dwell in relative peace and safety. Just don't come out of your holes when we're mowing the lawn, and we'll get along just fine.

The problem of you in the house is more than simply food theft. You leave little "presents" behind wherever you go. Sometimes they're small and brown and easily mistaken for chocolate chip bits. Other times they're yellowish, nasty-smelling puddles. And, of course, your penchant for decimating stocks of toilet paper is legendary.

Imagine our situations are reversed: you are lords of a wonderful house, and then some diminutive thieves sneak in, stealing your food, destroying your toilet paper, and then to top it all off, pooping and peeing everywhere. What choice would you have, I wonder, except to exterminate with extreme prejudice?

That being said, I don't relish the idea of waging war against you, but you need to move. Or else.

~A lover of Meeces

Maybe I'll be the first exterminator of humans. Oh wait, there already are human killers. They're called hit-men. Still, if we can mass-exterminate rodents who are only trying to survive in our world, then why can't we have mass human exterminators. There really isn't much of a difference is there. Rodents have just as much a right to live as we do.
