New Hampshire Animal Shelter Overwhelmed by 1,000 Mice Surrender

A man unexpectedly delivers nearly 1,000 mice, challenging the shelter's capacity and resources.

The New Hampshire Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is struggling to manage an influx of nearly 1,000 mice.
The mice were surrendered by a man who initially claimed to have 150, but clarified it was 150 containers of mice.
Many of the mice arrived pregnant, leading to a rapidly growing population at the shelter.
The shelter has converted part of its cat pavilion into a temporary space for the mice, with containers stacked on tables and shelves.
Efforts are underway to distribute the mice to other shelters and foster homes, with some already being adopted.
