In case the same question leaps to anybody else's mind: they're made of pipe cleaners and painted felt.

Yeah, my first reaction was, "That sweet old lady sure kills a lot of mice."

Ok depictions of mice wearing people clothes and doing people things is a weird thing of mine. This is right up my alley. Awesome find.

Ah, I thought it was totally obvious they weren't real, but then again I grew up with this.

She has a knack for posing them in life-like ways. I like that they have a pet caterpillar that enjoys having its tummy rubbed. This one is my favorite, though.

I should hope so!

This sort of thing is the reason I cannot, simply cannot, use mouse traps, especially the hideous glue kind or D-Con. Damn you, anthropomorphization.

These are way too cute! I still have a picture I drew as a little kid that my mom saved of a mouse house with a little fence etc.

I was just talking last night (at a MetaFilter meetup no less) about how mice are cute except when you encounter them in real life where they are gross and awful. PROOF!

These are pretty cool and I admire her skill. Could use more robots though.

If you also like very creepy/trippy stop-motion animation, I recommend the film Blood Tea and Red String.

I was in a foul, foul mood, and then I looked at the wee little mouses, and now I'm much happier!
