8 Reasons Why The Harvest Mouse Is Our New Favorite Cute Tiny Animal

Ok, we've never actually seen a harvest mouse in real life. Apparently, they only live in Europe. Just another reason why we want to go abroad someday!

1. They are strong and watch out for each other.

They hang by each other's tails! How adorable is that?

2. They like pretty flowers

And they are tiny enough to fit inside a tulip! Must be nice and colorful in there!

3. They are "berry berry" cute!

They like raspberries, apparently.

4. They stop at nothing to get what they want.

Even when that means climbing all the way up a wheat stalk, because the tastiest grains of wheat are at the top.

5. They are good homemakers.

Look at the adorable nest this one made!

6. They "hang in there" during tough times!

And they also have good balance!

7. They perform gymnastics feats

Speaking of good balance!

8. They live in harmony with other animals

Even spiders. Notice that the mouse isn't attempting to destroy the web.

9. They aren't afraid to dream

Or to make a wish on a fluffy dandelion.

10. They squeak in glee over pretty flowers

This little mouse seems particularly pleased.

11.They are very social animals.

These two share a nest together.

12. And finally, they're just simply adorable.

Isn't that the cutest little face?
