A Mouse is Not Welcome

These past three days, I was puzzled as to why my fur babies dog food was always gone so fast without feeding them yet. I took the time to investigate this morning. I found out the reason, and a mouse is sharing food with them. I wish I could adapt him, but it is a big NO for a rodent to stay at home. I am not that sadistic, so I just moved the dog food pans to another place. In this way, he cannot access free food. Eventually, he will just walk away and find other places to steal food.
Am I inconsiderate with this creature?

Well, mice that aren’t regular pets can carry disease, so my inclination would be a trap that made it quick or a humane trap where I would then drive far far away to drop them off somewhere. I don’t like killing them, but if they had something I don’t want it affecting my dog (I mean even their poop and pee carry disease). Mice can get to places you just never expect.

@AmbiePam They pretty resilient in that area but you are right, nothing to be played with.

Well you have to get rid of the mouse as you know or there will be many of them. I buy the sticky traps.

I am very scared of mouse. We used to have a cat who was very good at catching mice. Now, there is no mouse in my apartment. It there is one, I'll use a sticky trap.

I have almost a similar story to narrate I really do not know when it comes and laps up whatever is there in a bowl though not much. I even put some poison in a banana. It has taken that banana but comes back every day Do not know what to do.
