I'm a softie. I keep heated bowls of water on the front porch, the back porch and in the barn but I'll be the first to say these are really for the cats - ours and an occasional raccoon or opossum.
However. As I was sweeping the snow off the front porch this morning (yes, it was not yet zero degrees), I notice the tiny footprints leading up to and around the water bowl. Mouse prints. Darling little mouse prints. Now I feel like I should provide a tiny ladder and a rock in case someone slips and falls in.
Yep. Big time sucker.

lovely. I spotted a mouse running across the snow last night. too cute.
I know exactly how you feel. We have a ton of field mice and they are so tiny and cute. I prefer they stay outside but occasionally they make their way inside. Our Schnauzer is an incredible mouser.
