Blast From the Past II: Meeka the Baby Mouse

Meeka the baby mouse.

Meeka the baby mouse was probably one of the most adorable creatures I've seen.  Now where did I get a wild mouse you may ask?  Unfortunately my cat isn't too keen on letting the critters roam free around him.  One night I suppose a nest of the baby mice started running around and they climbed our brick walls all the way onto the balcony.  Oliver started to chase one of the poor creatures around and my sister immediately ran outside and grabbed the cat then hollered for me to grab the mouse.  I picked the frightened mouse up and put him in an old hamster cage with food, water and the necessities.  My sister then gave him the name Meeka.  Later on I named one of my hamsters after him.  Sadly over the next couple days his condition declined.  He stopped moving around, wouldn't open his eyes and eventually had seizures.  Sadly he passed away in his sleep three days later after what I presume to be internal injuries from my cat.  R.I.P. Meeka the baby mouse.
