What kind of cute little creature is this like from a fairy tale!? A Japanese pusher @johny432 shared a pet mouse on Twitter, originally the daily sunbathing pet is very common, but a closer look, this little guy is actually only the size of a human finger, holding the pusher's fingers to sleep in the cute look, let people see both surprised, but also can't help but melt!
It turns out that this super mini little guy is called "sleeping mouse", also known as "thumb squirrel", the photo is still just a baby mouse, the body is quite small, the whole is only about 1 knuckle of an adult, small limbs plus a furry little tail tightly hooked fingers, almost like a fairy tale "Thumbelina" will appear as a small partner. I opened my eyes and looked particularly endearing again.
In fact, the pusher raised not only a thumb mouse, but also a litter ~ the way everyone sleeps together is too cute!
Netizens have watched and been turned over: "Cute to burst !!! Baby Sleeping Mouse is so small!" " " At first I thought it was fake, it was really small ~", "It's amazing, but the little one looks very alive", "It's too small to be afraid that you will accidentally squash it".
According to the introduction of the fan "Love Mouse Association", sleeping mice are like mini squirrels, adult rats are only 6 to 10 centimeters long (without tails), the average life expectancy is about 4 to 5 years, it is a social animal (so the promoter will raise a nest at a time), the sleeping mouse personality is also relatively timid, need to spend time and cultivate their feelings, if they are frightened or threatened, even will break the tail to survive, but the tail will not be like the gecko after the tail is broken and can grow again, so try not to let them be frightened, or suddenly catch their tail Oh.
