mouse food or mouse poison!

No reason they should be. Most rodent poison work by anticoagulating the blood. It's not an anaesthetic or other central depressant.

That's awfully tough on the poor 'ole mice. Can't some 'happy pill' content be added to send them out on a high?

That's a really bad idea, if they get resistant to the poison you've just created a huge black market in grain, there'll be gangs of mice hanging out on corners around your house, one day you'll come home to find that your home entertainment system and jewellery have been nicked and fenced to the rats to pay for the mice's habit.

...and those tarted up rodents hanging around waiting for some passing customers

[The Natural Philosopher]
