I’m living in a hole in a house. I’m a mouse. I watch the humans set traps for me, I get so scared sometimes I have to pee. They call me unsafe, unsanitary and dirty. They’re trying to kill me before I turn thirty. Can’t I live a life in peace, so I can take care of my niece. The humans built a house on my old land, it’s unfair I can’t live here and play with their new band. Just because humans are a different species doesn’t make my existence wrong. You’ve stolen my territory for way to long!

Wonderfully written! I love mice!
You have given a different perspective on the coexistence of mice and humans and articulated the potential thoughts of a mouse about the living space they inhabit. Indeed, humans sometimes invade spaces where mice already lived. But you have told the story in a humorous and captivating way. Well done!
