There's a little mouse in my basement I think it's dead but I'm still scared of it.

I'm pretty sure it's dead. It's curled up in a ball and I kind of screamed and ran upstairs yesterday when I saw it. Then I went back down about 30 minutes later and put one of those 5 gallon Harbour Freight buckets over it.
When I got back from the gym last night I felt guilty like "what if he starves" so I crumbled up some cheese and quickly placed it under the bucket by lifting it just a fraction.
This morning I'm trying to screw up my courage to go lift the bucket and see if it's moved.
What do I do - like should I be prepared to hit it with a shovel if it tries to move away? I'm hoping it's dead but I've never been in this situation before thankfully.

Have your husband get it.

Are you a mouse biologist

It might be Mr. Jingles. You better hope he's still alive.

You're just going to have to move. The mouse will kick your arse.

I like the part where you're worried about it starving, yet are prepared to bash its brains in with a shovel

Let your pussy handle it.
Or you can have a cat do it.

I'm the man of the house and I've never been in this situation before. If my ex still lived here I think that would have helped me be more stoic about it but when it's just me I have no such societal norm to adhere to. Perhaps that's why the need for this post - to motivate myself into action? I'll make a note to discuss with my therapist tomorrow.

Shotgun. Just blow the whole damn bucket up.
Or maybe set the house on fire.

I’m never sure if you acting like a bitch is part of your character or not
Posted on 5/11/22 at 11:33 am to SirWinston
I say you should continue to torture it until one of you dies.

Sounds like the potentially dead mouse is the real man of the house.

Yah I don't know what I'm doing. Like ideally I'd get it in a shoebox and drive it out to a meadow or something right? But that may involve touching it.
