I found a mouse in my backyard. It s mostly sitting still, moves every so often. Should (can?) I do anything?

Tiny little fella. Noticed him sitting beside the door mat just outside the back door. I thought he was dead at first so I gave him a gentle poke and he moved.

Grabbed a cig in the yard and when I went back in he was gone. Couple hours later he was there again. Sitting still and every 5-10 minutes or so he moves a little.

Is it just sleeping or is it like trying to find a comfortable place to die?

I m reluctant to pick it up or do anything because A) it might bite me and if it has any disease it ll infect me B) if it is dying and I can t do anything, picking it up will most likely just needlessly terrify the little thing.

I put a piece of bread next to it, just to be sure. Is there anything else I should do? Water maybe?

Does anyone know if mice behave this way before they pass?
