Aww! I know he isn't silly. He is just doing normal stuff for a mouse. Exploring....'going out to work'....getting to know his environment....
If only I could say to him, "stay down on the floor and you are okay." I tried to convey that to him, but it hasn't worked.
Unfortunately I am not sure I can do this. I have found I am scrubbing everything down every day, and he has even been inside my little oven, leaving little poops there....I can't wash the whole kitchen down every day.
I keep wavering. I make up my mind to re-locate him, then change my mind again because winter is coming, and I don't like putting him out in winter. I keep thinking "Is there a way I can make him living here work?"
The hay barn is big and there are huge bales of new hay stored in there. I know it would be warm, sheltered, and I am sure he would find food. But yes it's out in the big wild world, where he would not be totally safe.
The hay barn is the best option though. Sally-cat's sheds -not such a good idea!
The barn up the hill....no, that's feral cats' territory! The hay barn is in a whole different direction.
