It's wonderful and cute and lovely. But if you saw it in your kitchen you'd get a mousetrap and want to kill it wouldn't you?

Not likely. I would give him a mini J-cloth and he could wash up too.

I'd offer it a mop & a bucket.
I think actually it's making a nest, but hasn't quite got it right.

Re: Mouse that tidies up the shed.

I was just watching this on the evening news, and the chap who's shed is was, and filmed the antics, reckons the mouse saw all the peanuts in the bird food box, and was trying to hide them to keep them all for himself.

Made sense to me. After all, squirrels hide food, dogs bury bones, etc.

Not if it was tidying up!

No, Floydy, I would not kill a mouse. I would catch it humanely and suggest it moved elsewhere but kill it - no.

Do you think,it was building a nest behaviour from the mouse?

Probably. I think it came out that bird seed was kept in the tub so presumably, mousy thought he had a ready made house, just needed to put the bits and pieces in.
