We all know that mice are known for scurrying through small holes and eating through walls, but now you know that they can also climb walls.
Mice have nails on each of their toes which enables them to grip on the wall and wrap their feet around lumps in the walls to help themselves up.
I have to share the story of how I found this out as it was quite a funny moment.
It was a late evening and I heard my cat Squeak outside meowing, so I went to let him in and noticed he had caught a mouse which was running around the garden. The mouse ended up hiding behind a bucket and when we checked to see if it was okay, the mouse suddenly bolted up the wall climbing as high as the roof! We were screaming and closed our bedroom windows to ensure the mouse wouldn't crawl in our rooms during the night.
This made me curious and after a search I came across this YouTube video, proving it to be true. Take a look.
