Spy cam on Edward. Such a cute posture, lol. He is a rescue mouse that was found almost dead inside a glue trap. I want to upload more of him & others that I've found on my YouTube / Rescues Playlist.
Edward going ham on my pitiful attempt to sponge up the crevices with paper towel. For whom it may concern, he has a 100% vegan diet, since it would either be morally hypocritical to feed him animal products, or unhealthy when there are better plant-based alternatives to choose instead.
Discussing a sick mouse that I found next to a poison trap.
MORE INFO
Luigi (featured in the video while talking) is a wild mouse that I've had for over 2 years now. I found him when he was very young, in between some lethal traps that I assumed killed his family, and people that wanted him gone but were too scared to pick him up. He has been the kind of mouse to get excited and chase my feet around, very sweet like the others that I have at home.
There was nowhere around that I could take the poisoned mouse, unfortunately. It was a wild circumstance where I had nothing except my backpack, some water, leftover kiwi, and a French fry that I had to ask someone for. I didn't mean to say that the mouse "coughed" up blood. I don't know if mice can even cough. But I see them periodically choke or gag when dying from what I assume is poison, sometimes with blood coming out of their mouths, sometimes a kind of foamy white substance (I assume poison).
Rodent poison, from my understanding, cripples and shreds their organs, and it is painful and can be very slow. One big buff mouse that I tried to save from a glue trap near a bunch of poison traps, survived for about 1 week before dying at home for example, but usually it is a matter of hours to a couple of days.
To clarify about my anecdotal experience with "mice infestations", I had worked in a store for years that dealt with a high volume of mice, and after sealing up certain key points of entry, even haphazardly and incompletely, it essentially removed 99% of the problem from the store. Along with many personal searches about this topic online, I've come to think that mice are a problem only for those who collect large amounts of unprotected feed, typically animal farmers who are cruel and unnecessary anyway and shouldn't be a thing, and people that ultimately do not take the time to secure their homes, stores, foods, or look into alternative and nonlethal methods to deal with these toddler-minded hobos when they do become a purported problem. For example, a wild mouse that has been living in my walls for months now, used to run around my rooms a lot, looking for food and water wherever he could. But ever since I put out food and water out for him in the corner, he just takes from that and does not explore my home much at all now. Similarly, squirrels will seek fruits and vegetables from peoples' gardens, but water dishes are said to make them less inclined to seek moisture from the plants. This is just a small example of not jumping to violence, but overall I'm convinced there are almost always nonviolent ways to deal with peaceful wildlife that are just trying to survive. It is a matter of having the baseline care for them, because that care is all it will take is start using your brain to manage & prevent them. Similarly when you witness animal agriculture -- any baseline care for the victims is going to motivate you find peaceful alternative to eat instead. At this point, when people victimize themselves & complain about mice, it is like listening to someone victimize themselves over the existence of rain entering their house when the simple fact is that they have a hole in their roof.
Small disclaimer that can be important to many people, myself included, that I do feed only vegan food to mice since it would either be morally hypocritical to feed them animal products, or unhealthy when there are better plant-based alternatives to choose instead. I can link my full thoughts on meat-based pets for anyone interested here: https://youtu.be/3dyHcChEqbw?si=wLEg57-925nJT5QJ
Potato, corn, avocado, strawberries, carrots, lettuce, red chili flakes, touch of salt. Please watch Dominion on YouTube to see why it is so important to eat plants instead of animal products.
