this is cruel! Anyone who thinks this is cool or funny clearly has bad taste and no heart ! To take an innocent creature and make it into your computer project takes someone with a really warped mind. I feel sorry for you because one day you will have to answer for these inhuman decisions you have made.

What a great idea! I am going to will my hands to be made into mouse devices. My wife would love to hold my hand while she surfs the web. And if she goes first I’ll have her hand made into a mouse. I can’t wait to talk to her about it. She will be so surprised.

Don’t be upset by this. Just keep in mind that not many, if any, mice die of old age. This fellow was probably saved from being eaten alive by a hawk or owl.

@student: Isn’t that hinduism? Aghora, the left-hand path? Lots of good corporeal-getting-over fodder in graveyards.

As far as “this is wrong” goes, meh. It’s more overt than shoes, but I don’t see how you can create a cogent, marginally leak-proof argument that we don’t use animals in any way we like, for lots of purposes both approaching crucial and far from it. I guess you were being sarcastic, Ted, but for argument’s sake…Jello, anyone?

And I continue to be sick soulmates with Evilbeagle. I say if it’s gross and funny and some people will get offended for the sake of random offendedness, celebrate!

Also? When I was a teenager I had some fish, and when they started committing suicide out of the tank, I started taxidermy-ing them with glue on little cardboard plaques.

Largefromage, I saw a case mod made of a beaver once. Same concept. You could probably find it on Instructables.

Yuck.

I’m not big on the whole taxidermy thing anyways. And I’m not hugely offended, but yeah, this is wrong.

They really should have made it a cordless one.

In summer camp, we did taxidermy on mice. For 11-12 year old boys, it was pretty awesome.

I brought home and proudly showed it my folks. Mom, sadly , was not impressed. A few days later, it went missing.

Not sure if I’d want this kind of computer mouse though. Don’t like to touch the little buggers, they’re disgusting!

You know what i would really like to see?

A whole `case mod` using an appropriately sized rodent – The Capybara. Or maybe a PDA Guinea Pig?
CellPhone Squirrel?

Ok, I am stopping now….

i’d love to see the faces of those who think it’s hilarious when they’d come face to face with a taxidermied human corpse being used as a coat hanger with a stick up its ass.

Very cool! It’s enough to make me want to learn taxidermy.

Please take this post down – it’s rather disturbing.

Evilbeagle — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 10:15:09 +0000

okkk… first of all, a rat is not a human. As much respect as I have for animal life, human life is far more important. Of course, if grandma wanted to be stuffed by a taxidermist, I wouldn’t stand in her way. The dead are dead and have no clue what’s going on. Do you think I give a flying fig what happens to my body once I am dead? Would I make a canoe out of grandma? No. But you know what, I wouldn’t serve grandma up with a side of peas and potatoes either. That’s where she is different from a cow.

By: okkk

okkk — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 09:56:00 +0000

Ok, so to all the people saying it is not cruel. Suppose you get your grandma to a taxidermist. There is nothing wrong with that, right? Now suppose that after that, you want to make a nice canoe. Now would that be the same?

However I have to say, cool article, really “neat”.

you know in certain varieties of tibetan buddhism practitioners essentially live in charnal grounds holding human skulls and thigh bones and such. the purpose is to meditate on the transience of life. all life passes, this is the world we live in. to be conscious of it is our fate. for our dear mouse friend, he was not self-conscious and had no expectation of the length of his time on earth, so i doubt he was disappointed with his lot. and most likely he did not die in pain, because most people are not cruel enough to perform that act.

evilbeagle’s got a point. there are far more important things to worry about.

Btw, how many are you wearing leather on your feet? I certainly know quite a few humans who deliberately wear dead cows on their feet. Not only that, the dead cows now smell of inhumane ugly sweaty food odour.

Now consider the mouse in the same context and think of the double standard if you want to be disgusted.

Wow. I mean… I’m no veggie. I hunt. I used to work at a mortuary, so It takes a bit to gross me out… but this is cold, man.

Evilbeagle — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 07:39:10 +0000

@Guy

A squirrel army or something like that? Or was it a dog in need of cleaning?

I’m actually still laughing at the comment that called this “degrading”, because you know, rats are so sensitive to this sort of thing and would be outraged if they saw their buddy’s corpse being desecrated in such a way when he naturally deserves a funeral on consecrated ground.

Is that USB or Firewire up its ass? Left/right mouse click on its eyes?

Imagine a month usage of that thing. All your palm sweat and whatever in the hell else is on your hand getting on that fur. Shit, thats disgusting.

So what if it’s old? That cat-door surprise video was 10 years old, but I’d never seen it!

By: Guy

Surprisingly, this isn’t the first time I’ve seen such a thing. I was in a hospital out west a couple years ago (Something Heart as I recall) and one of the doctors (!) tried selling me one of these. Some guy with a foreign name, Dr. Jan Itor I believe it was. Anyways, I assumed it was some sort of test to single out the crazies as anyone who wants one of these must be nuts!

Otherwise, this is…yeah, I just have no words. :/

This is AWFUL. Not funny, not cute not usable. This is using this poor hamster’s body animals in a disgusting degrading way. Enough cruel stuff like this isn’t funny or clever.

Eh, taxidermy has always grossed me out, so this didn’t push any buttons I haven’t already had pushed. Not the kind of thing I’d want in my house, though.

Having a stuffed animal for decor, sure, using one as a mouse… BLEH
