Hi all - my wife and I are vegetarian animal lovers and recently
discovered several wild mice at the bottom of our canary aviaries,
(our 3 cats are buds with the local and caged birds and, thus, merely
took a bored interest in these new arrivals), so I tracked down a
friendly trap.

(I can highly reccomend a long, blue, bent, plastic tube that
Bunnings
sells for only $2 - and peanut-butter DOES work!)

So, the Wild Friendlies start arriving into the trap: 2, then 2 then
1, then another and another... A week later, we THINK we now have 14
BEAUTIFUL mice housed with water, food, toilet rolls and shredded
paper and a wonderful $2.50 wheel - up to EIGHT of them having a ball
together; spinning and spinning and spinning.

No fighting, of course, because it's all one family. Dad, (I think)
and
one particular baby are the mainstayers on the wheel - and this baby
will even stay on it while I push it around and around - WHEEEE!!!

Okay, guys, now WHAT!??? We are not stupid and cannot afford to have
them all neutered and we will NOT take them to RSPCA to be
euthanised... Is it fair to release them near a creek, or in a
cemetary, or...?

Any advice???

regards, J & J.
