My brother and his wife have a gorgeous (but slightly bitey) Siamese kitty called Hero. She likes little mouse toys. So, I had to do the obvious and make her one!
I browsed Crochet Pattern Central for a quick and easy pattern and found one
here by KristieMN. I managed to make it in about an hour and half so it was pretty easy. I had to make a few amendments, like I sewed the eyes on instead of using toy eyes. I also decided to stuff the mouse with strips of felt rather than the usual poly-fill because she has a tendency to completely destroy a soft toy so didn't want her eating any of the thin fibres.
Needless to say, she enjoyed the little mouse. But poor mousey (rest in peace) succumbed to its injuries 3.5 days later. Oh well, kitty enjoyed it!
