Description: The house mouse was one of the most widely distributed and successful rodent ever. They looked a lot like rats, but their snouts are pointy, their eyes and ears are bigger, their heads, hands and feet are smaller than even rat kits', and their tails are longer and almost hairless than rats. Despite that they were pests in human houses, and prey of rats, cats, and even dogs, mice can eat any plant material, but they were omnivores. They can eat their own poop to acquire nutrients produced by bacteria in their intestines. Like all rodents, mice don't vomit. Although they are closely related to rats, mice are afraid of them, which the rats can often kill and eat the mice, which this behavior is called , "muricide." Did you know that cats can be used as pest control towards mice and rats? If so, this makes a popular thing about "Cat and Mouse," which reminds some of you, of Tom & Jerry from MGM and Warner Bros., and Itchy and Scratchy from Simpsons. And the most famous mouse in some cartoons, on Disney, was Mickey Mouse for example. Mice can be used as food for domestic carnivorous pets. Also that mice are known to be small pets.
