Picture me in my parents' house at age 15
>I discover thousands of little mouse turds in the kitchen
>Feel disgusted and decide to set up mouse traps in tight spaces
>Catch three mice in one day
>Their eyes bulge out of their sockets as their necks break under the hammer of the trap
>I think one of them was still twitching
>Spend the rest of my evening playing video games and pretending to do homework
>Decide to go to the kitchen to get a drink
>I see my dog in the hall
>She is pressing her nose against the floor
>Tell her to move
>I see something on the floor
>It's too dark
>I get a flashlight
>I see a shivering baby mouse
>It can barely move and its eyes were still shut
>I must have killed its mother
>First instinct was to leave it outside, exposed to the elements, hoping that the stray cat would put it out of its misery
>Mother stops me
>Convinces me to care for it
>I put the mouse in a box with some shredded tissues and some corn flakes
>Baby mouse starts to move towards the pile
>It stops shivering
>Mom promises to take the mouse to the local animal shelter tomorrow while I'm at school
>Go to sleep
>Wake up and go to school
>Come home from school
>Find the box the mouse lived in. It's empty
>Mom tells me the mouse is in the shelter
>Decide to go to the shelter
>I ask one of the workers about the mouse
>They say no one has brought in a mouse in weeks

I never asked my mother about the mouse because I realized what happened.

He lived just over a year. Got him a nice big cage with activities and such. I don't tend to like rodents but I don't like seeing animals suffer. Feel free to insult

Sorry your shitty little spider couldn't hunt properly. Be glad I didn't rip its fucking legs off one by one

The worst part was that it was so quiet. I imagined it would scream or something but it just quietly died.

Honestly, I agree with your actions, only because that faggot edgelord laughed.

I felt kind of bad and had the mouse's cry running through my head for awhile. Better a bird eats it than I kill it and put it in the garbage, I guess.

Should've stoned it to dead instead.

>at work
>coworker has enormous snake
>coworker says, "want a rabbit? I'm literally going to kill it if you don't take it"
>apparently snake wouldn't eat this rabbit, and rabbit is super friendly and outgoing
>rabbit was in snake tank for 5 days, and greeted family members that walked by the tank

That's the story of how I got my rabbit. He's super chill, loves people and other animals.

I also tried to take some feeder mice from another coworker (everyone in that office kept snakes) that she offered because they were pretty and friendly, but I was still living at home and my mother is afraid of mice and rats.
>>
My dad found out a mouse was living in his kitchen. he put up traps and tried to lure it out, but not he's just given up and treats it like a pet or something. He's given it a name and leaves food for it.
