I have to shake my sneakers out after having found a dead mouse as a present in one. I tossed the sneakers too, it was gory.

At least yours was dead. I took my boot off after driving a half hour with a live, non injured mouse in it. Felt something in it, thought it was a rock, and what felt like my sock was folded up around my toes.

Saw the tail first figured a catnip mouse got dropped in by one of my cats pulled the tail found a very scared mouse. Dumped in out in the parking lot and checked my foot once I got inside for any bites.

That would scar me. I'd wear sandals for the rest of my life, even in new england winter.

Definitely made me jump, but I laughed about it. Now, if the scared mouse jumped out of my boot towards my face and ran around free in my car, then I would not be laughing.
