Mouse in straw

Bunnysam

Alpha Buck
Hello

I just went up to my garage to fill up the buns' straw box and found a live mouse inside the bag of straw. After initially screaming and then thinking it looked kind of cute I removed it and sent it on its way, I filled the box and am now thinking is it safe to use the straw for my buns' litter trays?

I have read Jane's report and am a bit scared to say the least.

Should I go and get some new straw tomorrow and perhaps buy a bin?

Bunnysam :(
 
I don't think I'd be happy giving my buns that straw, I am quite paranoid about germiness though.
A bin would probably be a good idea for future mouse prevention.
I bet it was cute though, after the initial fright. :lol:
 
Yeh, Can't say I would want to use it either :? :?

I wouldn't take the risk and get some fresh tomorrow :D
 
Yes I think I will get some fresh straw tomorrow and disinfect the box as well. I keep thinking if I hadn't seen the mouse then I would have used the straw and how many times its probably been in the straw before :?

I will get a couple of bins - one for straw and one for hay tomorrow.

Thank you for your help :)

... and by the way I DID stroke the little miter on the head before I sent it on its way :lol: ... very cute.
 
... oops just seen the time. Better go to bed now THIS SITE IS VERY DISTRACTING!!! :lol: :lol:

My buns keep coming downstairs and looking at me, hinting its time for bedtime and their bowl of dried grass :)
