Let's say you're standing around the kitchen, minding your own business, when a mouse in coveralls wearing a backpack shows up. What would you do? See how a curious kid finds himself figure skating on scrub brushes, wrestling boa constrictors and climbing mountains when an innocent milk-and-cookie snack time goes from mishap to calamity to catastrophe faster than the twitch of a whisker!
