Well, that just made my day. I get lost in shopping center parking lots, but mice can find my house from miles away.
Melissa, you're joking aren't you? They really can do that?
The swamp is about 3 miles away from my house. Do you think that is far enough?

When we relocated the ones we caught, someone said to me, that they would probably get eaten by birds or snakes, but I said, that I couldnt do anything about that, and if that did happen, then that is natures way of keeping everything surviving.....at least they werent at the mercy of a spring trap that knocked their little heads off, just because they were hungry.
Lets just imagine, that they are enjoying a nice little life in their new surroundings......

If your feeding some birds or snakes thats the way it's suppose to be. Geez what are you suppose to do with them ? You have done every humane thing possible so far, hey i know, why don't you build a shelter for homeless mice? you havn't tried that yet! :laugh:

When I read these I felt bad for putting them outside in the wild, but after learning they can find my house from miles away, I probably wouldn't feel very sad if a snake did eat them. I definately don't want them coming back to my house.

I received 675 new emails last night. It didn't happen tonight though. Yeah, it was very weird.

MY GOD. What is up with that? 13497 messages? You need to tell somebody about that Jess. Hell, I thought 675 messages was bad. I think somebody put you on some kind of spam hit list.
Oh, I could never forget about the mice. As soon as I see one, I take it for a ride to the country and let it loose.

Current Weather in Indianapolis: Windy Rainy and Cold Temp: 40 F (4 C)
I have a friend flying in from London tomorrow, and I have a problem. Okay, let's face it. Indianapolis, Indiana is NOT London, England. I'm scared to death he is going to get bored. I have some activities planned for him (no not THAT... well maybe) but I would love it if someone could suggest some ideas.
In other words, if you were coming to Indianapolis for a visit, what would you like to do while you were here?
In other news, I released 4 more mice today! I think I have caught and released 9 mice so far. Yes, I have set aside my fear of mice in order to save them.
You may congratulate me.
;)
