Ok what kind of fatal disease does this adorable mouse have that's causing it to do silly things?

On second thought, I don't actually want to know. Let's just pretend it's having fun :).

I have good news for you. I just looked it up, because I thought the same as you.

It's just playing and/or showboating.

This mouse actually has Silly Little Guy (SLG) syndrome. It's not fatal, but it is lifelong in most mice.

I've had a few pet mice, and some of them just like to have fun doing silly shit like this. I've seen them go really fast in a wheel, then hang on so they whip around on inertia, that guy also had SLG, but lived a full life.

That's a hamster, not a mouse, and they're basically retarded. I know we're not supposed to use that word anymore, but I really can't think of a better adjective.

I fully expected this to be one those cleverly looped GIFs, but nope...

Poor guy doing solo trust falls. He just wants a friend to catch him.

Is it just me or are almost none the gifs here playing? Same thing in browser and native app on phone.

It's working for me on connect. Sometimes videos are missing audio, but gifs work well for me
