In New Brunswick, Canada, a legal cannabis field became an unlikely rehab center for a tiny mouse. Colin Sullivan, the field’s owner, caught the mouse red-handed (or red-pawed) stealing leaves for two days straight.
The mouse’s love for cannabis left it “stoned” and passed out on a stack of leaves.
Sullivan took the mouse in, providing a safe space for it to “detox” from its cannabis binge. After six days, the mouse was back to its normal self and released back into the wild.
The mouse’s journey went viral on Facebook, with many praising Sullivan’s kindness and the mouse’s determination to overcome its addiction. The posts garnered thousands of shares and comments, with many appreciating the lighthearted and humorous approach to a serious topic.
The story also highlights the legal status of cannabis in New Brunswick, where adults can consume it for recreational purposes. However, the government emphasizes public health education and awareness, ensuring responsible use.
In the end, the “stoner mouse” became an unlikely symbol of recovery and determination, reminding us that even the smallest creatures can overcome addiction with the right support.
