Will this mouse get me kicked out of the coffee shop?

filed under: peripherals hacks

This [Dwight Shrute]-esque project will let you try out your taxidermy skills. Apparently you can acquire a ‘wetware’ mouse fresh or frozen from pet stores. We just need to wait until fall when our pantry is visited by the less-domesticated variety.

A travel-sized optical mouse acts as the replacement guts. Some creative dremeling brings the plastic housing down to a more acceptable shape. The furry bits need to be processed using the mouse taxidermy guide before they are fit over the electronics. What you end up with is a creepy peripheral that nobody wants to use.

W.T.F. Is that even a hack? Ugh, distasteful, IMO. :\

And yes, yes it will get you kicked out =D

Great not only do I have a dead mouse skin on my mouse I have to pay $1000 do the the thing out of my cat!

Posted at 5:38 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by HIrudinea

Make a computer case out of a dog next. Or a laptop turtle!

But seriously, it’s not that disgusting people. The skin has been properly treated and such.

My first impression was, “wow, that’s really creepy”, but thinking of all the other things we use fur and hide for, now it just seams hilarious. I wonder if the fur would start coming off after a while though.

Posted at 6:10 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by Wolf

Whoa and it was made by a chick. My mind is
blown; there are girls on the internet and they cut up dead mice.

Posted at 6:30 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by Shmoozie

Nice hack! Not something I would use (I like the clean, cold feeling of plastic on my hand), but it’s very well done.

Posted at 6:35 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by icebrain

Seriously, it IS that disgusting. why not just go down to the county shelter and get a puppy. As long as it’s treated an such it won’t be gross.

Posted at 7:11 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by 81rdm4n

To make it even creepier just add in an audio playback chip + speaker so whenever you press one of the buttons it makes a death-rattle squeaking sound.

Wolf, a properly tanned pelt retains hair pretty well, although the area immediately surrounding the scroll wheel will prove a good stress test.

I tanned a 1sqft hide at home as an extra credit project for middle school (c. 1974). The pelt was scrap from a local taxidermist. The chemicals provided my neighborhood pharmacist with an excuse to break his routine while looking up the effects of chromium sulfate.

holy crap that hilarious!
too bad it wasnt alive and still guided your pointer lol

LMAO I love it! also +1 to the laptop turtle idea

Posted at 7:19 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by McSquid

Hmm, looks like something I might do. I’m more likely to craft an artificial mouse since I already know how to do that (and have some old fur coats I’ve being looking to cut up for projects). If I ever feel like learning taxidermy though (I don’t see why people have problems with dead animals, the pig dissection in high school bio just made me want bacon), this would be at the top of my list of things to do.

Posted at 7:19 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by MG

It’s hilarious, more so for the fact that people have such an adverse reaction to it.

Dressing them up in shirts too. Its not the taxidermy part that creeps me out, its the applications. Its like the squirrels on scrubs.

fuckin bionic mouse hack!

Posted at 7:48 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by jeditalian

@StarChaser, 81rdm4n. They’re just bitching because they value the lives of animals higher than that of people, and the mere suggestion that the body of an animal could be used for our entertainment confuses and disgusts them. Never mind all the animal-products in everything we eat, and the food chain. Some idiots will forever refuse rational thought when they see some stupid animal dead.

Posted at 7:51 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by Troel

so how long until someone builds a robo-kitty-skeleton and stuffs it in their dead cat, giving it creepy eternal life?
even easier, one of you deer-hunters could reinvent the ball mouse.. make a laser-ball mouse (just a laser mouse packaged neatly inside a deer nut-sack)

I think this is more up Dr. Jan Itor’s alley than Dwight’s, actually.

@ Shmoozie: Whoa and it was made by a chick. My mind is blown; there are girls on the internet and they cut up dead mice.

There are girls out there who are into every single thing you have ever been told girls are not into. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. Mostly good IMO, but YMMV. Hint: If you hook up with the one that embalms ex-living-mice to adorn her pointer-mouse, DON’T PISS HER OFF. Just, like, a hint. Hint.

Posted at 8:41 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by localroger

Now that is awesome. Who says all taxidermies have to be mounted on the wall, or in a museum? Although I might draw the line at taxidermy robotics.

Posted at 9:08 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by risu

I’d actually enjoy getting kicked out of a coffee house for this hack.

Folks featured here at HAD are often here for modding and repurposing things many of us wouldn’t (or just didn’t yet) think of. This is no different.

Taxidermy and/or skinning for fur is a fairly well-respected form of art dating back many, many centuries (except within PETA and some other groups). It’s a way of repurposing an animal hide. And to do it properly takes a fair bit of know-how, patience… just like any hack does.

Few people feel bad about mouse traps, poisoning rodents/”vermin”, or even using “humane” live traps only to take the whole “family” of captive mice to a watery grave in a bucket!

So why is this much different?

BTW: I’m not a taxidermist or even a hunter. I don’t kill for sport.

Posted at 9:31 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by Osgeld

> animals neutral or kind
Obviously a city boy, and a relatively well-off one at that… Mice used to be pretty exclusively pests, back before Disney/etc.

Posted at 9:42 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by WestfW

Personally, the only problem (or biggest atleast) I have with this is that it retains the head and limbs. Using the pelt is one thing, that’s okay (as long as I wasn’t involved in the making of it) but keeping the entire thing is another.

It’s just disturbing…

Posted at 10:31 pm on Mar 9th, 2010 by cde

@Troel
low-effort troll

there’s nothing noble about killing animals specifically for entertainment

can you get it through your through your thick skull that maybe caring about animals doesn’t have to be a false dichotomy (“caring about animals more than people”)

one can care about multiple things to the same extent

Wow… thats just disgusting. Whats even worse are some of these responses “so what I have 4 deer heads mounted on my wall” “dissecting a pig just made me want bacon” WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!? One day when your gone from this world, you may not go to hell. But “they” will definitely have some questions for you before letting you into heaven.

Posted at 12:54 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by Jason

@Shawn:

When was the last time you read your Bible? Try Genesis 9:1-3 (http://tinyurl.com/yjothre).

Our Creator gave us stewardship over EVERYTHING in the world. Specifically, animals are to be food for us. By extension, the rest of the animal, rather than going to waste, should be used for purposes just such as this (although I doubt the ‘ible poster ate the rat meat).

While we’re here, let’s just squash that whole “climate change” myth, as well. Just cast your eye one verse up to Genesis 8:22 (http://tinyurl.com/yz2e25p).

BTW, who was it that made the the first two leather items EVER? Oh, yeah… ALMIGHTY GOD HIMSELF! And to whom did He give them? THE MAN WHO BROUGHT SIN INTO THE WORLD (and his wife)! http://tinyurl.com/ydzaenk

There are too many other things wrong with your post to cover here. I’d be glad to study with you any time, though. runnerpack [at] gmail [dot] com

Posted at 1:06 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by RazorConcepts

A: It’s not cruel, the mouse is dead.
B: It’s not gross, the mouse is clean.
C: It’s a DEAD MOUSE. The things are almost universally pests. It’s kinda weird, but kinda cute in a strange fashion.

Thumbs up for the mouse mouse.

Posted at 1:16 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by ArtemisGoldfish

damn, you guys are such pussys

it clearly states the mouse is dead before he buys it so he’s just creativly repurposeing the poor thing

buying them from pet stores i can olny assume its for feeding snakes and such.

Great hack in my opinion

Posted at 1:19 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by borgar

damn and I just disposed of 14 nice lil’ grey pelts… I remember thinking, wow, these poor lil guys sure are soft and have such nice shiny coats, shame, what a waste… oh well atleast they aren’t getting their urine all over my pantry.. people really have no idea how much their lives destroy lil animals every single day of their lives… get over yourselves, everything you do destroys something else. at least this woman has a creepy-cute clicker.

“But “they” will definitely have some questions for you before letting you into heaven.”

I thought “God” said that we could basically use the animals however we want,.. oh and we can stone people to death and stuff too.

Lots of people walk around with all sorts of animal parts attached to their bodies, then ingest parts of animals… so if the invisible teapot does exist, there’s going to be a pretty long line at immigration.

Posted at 2:57 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by cantido

Posted at 4:31 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by Alex

Not gross. But it looks regrettably bristled up, as if it were right from cat’s throat. Live mice groom themselves regularly. I think that taxidermy creations look nice enough only if they are used solely for display and aren’t disturbed. Who wants to brush this stuffed peripheral every hour or so, anyway?

Posted at 6:05 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by Kaov

My cat kills mice by making them run til they die : thousand times more cruel than reusing a mouse skin. The good point is that I could try the hack with one. Killing a mouse or make it suffer to stuff it with electronics is cruel, using a dead mouse is not.

Anyway, that’s a hack.

Posted at 7:19 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by Philippe

Well, i’m gonna have to side with the “this is a valid and cool hack” crowd. as an avid hunter and such. especially when these rodents get into your area and eat your food, and bite you in your sleep (happened to my brother at our hunt camp). they are pests and to be honest, it was alreayd dead. I’ve seen many more worse ways to dispose of a mouse, and i’m not even talkig about store bought traps. those who would like to say that this is cruela dn hunting is a waste – more people are killed every year by deer than any other animal – in vehicular accidents. main reason for hunting nowadays is population control. all the animals that used to prey on animals don’t have the capacity to do so anymore (ie rats in most cities vs indoor pet cats – no way for them to keep the rats in check…). also, everyones ancestors here used to kill for food, so quit whining – none of the animal went to waste (i’m assuming the rest f the parts were used to feeed something). i could argue for hours on this, but wont. I would like to see simlar posts in the future though.

BTW, 81rdm4n – what are the measurements/# of points? (it’s a hunting term, not related to gaming in hunting for those who don’t know)

What will be next Hack a day post? Put a Roomba inside your dog, or an Arduino remote controlled cat? Shame on you. Hacking things is NOT playing with animals.

Posted at 10:59 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by Piku

Usually when I see something on this site that I deem irrelevant, boring, or “lame”, I skip and move on to the next one. I wish everyone here did that. But my favorite has to be those that demand they(HAD) don’t post anything in the event that what they’re considering could be seen as unsatisfactory for some of the readers, which I can relate to, as that is what I feel about your posts…you must be long-timers here, cause that’s a pretty high level of comfort you’re exhibiting.

This is just another general complaint comment against the waves of complainers, which I tend to see from time to time. It makes me wary of even reading the comment section which is unfortunate, because there can be just as many insightful comments on this site. Ah well.

Posted at 10:59 am on Mar 10th, 2010 by bobcollum

-sigh- Should have figured my words would be turned against me. The fact of the matter is it’s WRONG to kill animals for NO reason. This, as well as MOST forms of hunting fall under that category. And for those of you that quoted the bible, god did NOT write the bible. It was written by man, so don’t take everything it says word for word.

Just curious… what is your position on abortion?

The reason I ask is that I’ve noticed that most people who think animals = humans paradoxically believe that human babies have no rights at all, which places them below animals.

Posted at 9:10 pm on Mar 10th, 2010 by seinfeld

I live in the desert. I appreciate nature, so my property is natural– filled with desert scrub and cacti. Because humans have decimated the natural predators, including coyotes, snakes, and predatory birds, the pack rat population is exploding.

Pack rats carry disease, and parasites like so-called “kissing beetles.” Kissing beetles are blood suckers that find their way into people’s homes when pack rats build their nests nearby. Those bugs, in turn, carry pathogens that can make both humans and pets like dogs and cats sick.

Not only that, pack rats do *millions* of dollars worth of physical damage each year. They chew holes in walls, and they gnaw their way into attics. They climb into engine compartments and, in an evening of chewing, can do thousands of dollars worth of damage to your car. (Ask me how I know.) They gnaw house wiring, leading to fires and the loss of both the structure and human lives.

These creatures are vermin, and if every pack rat I had ever seen was skinned and turned in to a computer peripheral, I would dance a little jig with joy.

In fact, were it not for the few remaining rattlesnakes, owls, and hawks that feed on them (animals for whom I have great sympathy) I would happily support the eradication of every rat in existence.

Yes, this project is a little on the creepy side, and no, I would never have this on my work station. But it *is* funny, creative, and fundamentally no different than a deer head mounted to wall, or for that matter, a leather belt or shoe.

If you don’t like the material HAD posts, then leave. If enough people leave, HAD will change their content.

I for one will *not* leave. Too much good stuff here… even blinking LEDs and arduinos.

I never use my laptop in public places but this would be totally worth getting kicked out of a coffee shop. I can totally see myself reaching into my latop bag and then going “aaaah! you little…!” and then taking it out and slamming it on the table a few times.

Of course if I would have made the hack, it would also contain one of those little motors from an old cellphone so I can make it “randomly” move around a little bit, as if it’s not quite dead yet.

Posted at 11:28 am on Mar 11th, 2010 by Jac

Heh heh heh…

This is a little creepy, but mostly because it still has the head.

Reminds me of when I was in college and tossing around the idea of getting a small rc car, putting it into a skunk skin and then driving it around in the cafeteria during dinner. Could never figure out how to make sure nobody got trampled in the sure-to-ensue stampede though.

All the wusses please do us a favor and continue posting your thoughts. It was fun to read your comments in this long thread.

I am a member of PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals), and I do shoot vermin to get rid of them. I fed a fox and her 2 cubs on all the dead squirrels I shot off from all the trees around my house (my trees BTW). I no longer have any squirrels or field mice (yes, I live in the woods) so there… whine and cry. I call it damage prevention, as these animals cause thousands in damage if they get in.

That said, I do like animals. I don’t have an issue with dogs and cats, although I don’t own any pets (please whiners, note I said “OWN”) All other animals are either vermin you just kill, or I like…with a side of fries :P

Flame on!!!

Funniest thing yet. I love it, although I wouldn’t touch it. Don’t think you would have to worry about any one stealing it when you weren’t looking.
