i'm meant to like rodents, i know. i know, i have a pet rat, maybe i've ASKED for this but FUCKING HELL I AM NEVER GOING TO SLEEP KNOWING THAT A MOUSE IS IN HERE, AM I A HYPOCRITE FOR SAYING THIS? I KNOW I SLEEP WITH A PET RAT IN MY ROOM. IT CRAWLED ON MY FUCKING BED! i'm not scared, i don't know how i feel. i'm impressed, it was brave. i was just about to go to sleep as well. i don't know what to do with myself.

help me :(
is the mouse called jerry?
I'm tom, i'm rubbish at getting jerry.
Don't rats eat mice?
Or am I thinking of carrots?
carrots don't eat mice
yeah
carrots eat mice.
oh snap
beaten to it. kind of.
:(
I used to have mice in my room but they were pet mice and they were cute and cuddly. I guess this one wasn't?
all mice are cute
but i don't like unexpected things. i dunno see, it was dark, i had just finished looking at some jobs, i was just about to close my laptop when i saw something crawling out of the corner of my eye. i thought my eye was just playing up then i saw a tail and it's a tiny little black thing (so so small compared to my rat) i feel like setting taylor on it but i dunno how many mice are down there on my floor underneath the rubbish down the side of my bed so i don't want a massive gang fight.
WHY DID IT COME ON MY BED??/? i would've been okay if it'd just stayed down there. :'( i want to die. i am never goijng to sleep again.
yeah but
not like a tame one then. :( I would probably go sleep in another room if there is one, or at least just panic completely and call my mum or something.
it does sound pretty bad
i had a similar experience the other day. I thought I had trodden on a dead rat in the cellar. it was all squishy and furry and sent shivers down my spine.
but it was just an old shin pad.
i hate you.
i was trying to sympathise!
you're just like meths.
looking at some jobs?

i had a rat in my bin
a few months ago. that was pretty scary at the time. i think it's dead now. it was tiny.
*mouse
fashion a trap a live trap
bait it with cheese or somat
maybe google will help u find plans for a live trap for rodents
i don't want to kill it
i just want it to promise not to come on my bed again :(
i am going to sleep in my housemate's room, she has one of those plug-in scare mice away thingies. i can't get those because they interfere with my rat.
you can buy live traps
that just close behind them and you check them in the morning and you can release them some where else.
"live trap"
"rat poison"
which was bought for my old big house once, I felt quite sorry for the mouse/mice as they seemed very excited to get some food and were running about, the next day all was silent.
like this heck that links big

can you get that to me in the next five minutes?
I would love to help
but I am far to far away.... maybe get a box proped up on a little stick with some cheese under it?
great invention
Calm down love: Only the mouse can hear you
.
i told a mouse to 'get the fuck out of my kitchen' once, i like to think it worked effectively.
good luck!
x
your house sounds
slightly hazardous... Hope they leave when you ask them to! They aren't eligible for squatters rights!
they probably think they're allowed just because i have a riodent as a pet
maybe
he could be your pet too...the new mouse, that is.
this isn't fair
i can't go into my room any more. i have no idea where it is. last time i saw it it was perched atop my n64 then it dived into my bin. i wish my room was tidier.
i cant believe you are scared of it!
i'm not scared of the actual thing
it's the not knowing where it is which i don't like. y'know, i could pick something up off the floor and it'll scurry out. scary.
oh my god
my fucking colleague just got her and another colleague a cup of tea and didn't even fucking offer me one.
that's it
i'm going to get myself one. then i'm going to kick her face off. fucking bitch.
you go, bitch!
you're like superbitch (safety;)
and that mouse is your kryptonite
We had a mouse in our house once
We used one of those live traps, and put peanut butter in it. It didn't work, but we had loads of leftover peanut butter, which was ace. We ended up using poison :-(
^this
we used glue traps, which are even more nasty
did you find it still alive?
yes
you can release them using oil to get them free, or um, drown them :(
glue trips are the evil
"glue trips".....?
hallucinogenic mouse traps?
I had a mouse in my bedroom once.
I could hear it rustling around in the night. I put gloves on and chased it around the room until I had it cornered, then I pounced and caught it before putting it outside. It was cute.
I also saved a mouse from a swimming pool once.
Mice are shitty, filthy little cunts!
I love glue-traps!
THEY ARE NOT!
I have to kill loads of rats this summer though. Not looking forward to it :-(
THEY SO ARE!
And dont get me started on rats! >:(
fuck you
leave this thread.
Go fuck yourself!
Leave this community.
no
you're crap
No! you're crap!
..and so are mice and rats!
We once had a housefull of mice
in our, erm, house.
It was lunchbreak at school and loads of my friends came round to watch Home and Away (Yeah, FUCK YOU skins kids! We knew how to party in the early 90s too!)
Anyway, suddenly a small mouse-face appeared below the tv. We were all shocked, especially as it disappeared again just as quickly. Putting it down to a group hallucination (I mean, fuck, we'd just seen Bobby's ghost appear out the fridge! Strange things were afoot!), we went back to school and double P.E.
Getting changed, Crowson the bully suddenly shouted out 'STEVE! YOUR PET MOUSE IS ESCAPING!' The mouse had clambered into steve's bag and hitched a lift to school. Despite chasing it round the changing rooms with a shoe for 5 minutes, I'm pleased to say the mouse outwitted Crowson and escaped.
with these stories you are really spoiling us
that would have made an ace
episode of Grange Hill.
my god have you seen it now?
all the kids have laptops
Grange Hill was cancellled
you've been watching . . . . through the window of your local secondary?
hey!!
hey?
hey ;)
my mate alec who annoyed gunty one night
well not really annoyed so much as forced him to say something like, 'yeah you said that earlier and it didn't make me laugh then' ( :( ) had a mouse in his kitchen one day when we got back to his house. it had itself in a bag of bread, and they wanted to thwacky thwack him, but i chimed in with a 'haven't you people ever heard of letting the little fella free?' andmade a grab for the bad, and ran to the door, took it outside, and put it in a bush. in the morning, it had goned. i like to think that i saved it from a quick and painless death
<3
also when was that with gunty and alec? alec is lovely!
end of may bank holiday last year
at eh windmill, the first time i went, it was VERY VERY VERY wet that night
he must have sensed your rodent skillz
i like to think so
maybe we can lie together in harmony?
live
i don't want to lie down with him.
pet love
Do you remember when
you had sex with meths dressed as a mouse?
Mouseths.
joke of the day!!
!!!!!!!!
mous(m)e(e)
he'll be back.
maybe he's the ghost of the dead one
:(
she was a rat. it's a thought though, she is buried in my back garden.
do you want
to borrow my cats? they're desperate to make their first kill...
yes!!
i want a kitten so much.
I was in my old bedroom at my parent's place the other day
A mouse had made a home for itself in my cupboard and had used the Bible in there for litter/bedding/food. I couldn't be mad at it.
you should have bashed it over the head with it's little bible
I'm a fenian bastard
That sounds a bit too Old Testament for my liking
Just ordered
24 'snappy wooden rat traps'.
Am rat-murderer :-(
drown them?
It seems like an odd way to kill a mouse. Wouldnt you just throw it against a wall really hard? I'd set it free in the park.
^oops^
never talk to me again
those are pretty bad, my friend broke two toes with one when he went to the toilet.
I'd say he kinda deserved it.
a moousee just crawled onto my bed and sat next to my arm
somebody done that one yet?
no, maybe you should....
No-one's done Massuese either.
That'd be my choice if I was starting a spin-off thread.
If I had a mouse crawl onto my bed I think i'd hand my notice in
sleep round a friends for a month and then move out.
It's not happened yet, I did see a rat in the street the other day though.
