Gosh, you guys are barbaric.

I vote for the open cup with a top on it, take it outside, and put it in a bush or something. If it’s dying, it will die. If it’s just hanging out or dazed, it will eventually “wake up” and go its merry way.

I could never “dispatch” a mouse. Poor thing! He didn’t ask to come in your house!

I would take cottonwood up on her offer of the kitten, or if you’re outside of Chicago, hit the local rescue group. You can have an outside cat even if you’re allergic. My nephew’s wife is terribly allergic, to the point where she can’t even be around me without swellling up, but she has a couple of good mousers in her yard that take care of the rats from the nearby canal.
