Farmers often face challenges from pests like rodents and insects that threaten their crops and spread diseases. In an amusing incident in New Brunswick, Canada, a mouse was found in a cannabis field, appearing “stoned” and passed out on a pile of leaves.
Colin Sullivan spotted the mouse raiding his garden for two consecutive days and shared pictures of the little critter enjoying the leaves before it succumbed. Eventually, the mouse was discovered lying on its back, seemingly unwell.
Sullivan decided to care for the mouse, placing it in a cage to help it recover. After six days, the mouse was healthy enough to return to the wild. Sullivan humorously recounted the experience on Facebook, saying: “I watched this little rascal munch on my plants until he dozed off”. He also noted that the mouse, missing one ear, might have been trying to cope with some stress, prompting him to intervene and provide a safe space for recovery.
Sullivan updated his followers about the mouse’s condition, stating it had a rough time but was gradually getting better, now eating just one leaf a day. “One day at a time”, he advised. When the mouse was finally released from “rehab”, Sullivan celebrated its recovery with a playful post titled “On The Rodent To Redemption”, highlighting the mouse’s journey and the importance of supporting those in recovery.
His posts garnered massive attention, with the first receiving over 461,000 shares and the follow-up accumulating more than 6,400 shares and 1,500 comments filled with jokes and encouragement. Commenters expressed their delight in the mouse’s recovery, with one suggesting that it might have experienced a wild adventure, while another thanked Sullivan for caring for the little creature.
Sullivan, who has personal experience with substance detox, dedicated a heartfelt message to his wife, Robyn, crediting her support for his long-term sobriety. Many people who initially came for the story of the mouse found themselves inspired by Sullivan’s message of hope and recovery. Cannabis became legal in Canada in 2018, with each province, including New Brunswick, establishing its own regulations.
The New Brunswick government emphasizes creating a responsible culture around cannabis use, educating the public on health implications, and reaping the economic benefits of the industry. In this province, individuals must be 19 or older to consume cannabis, and possession is limited to 30 grams. Public consumption is prohibited, and landlords can restrict tenants from smoking or growing cannabis, although they cannot prohibit cannabis use if tobacco smoking is allowed. It’s essential for New Brunswick residents to understand the risks of cannabis use to make informed decisions.
At 61, Meg Ryan Makes a Rare Public Appearance and Looks Unrecognizable
At 61 years old, Meg Ryan made her first public outing in 6 months. She was seen at the screening of Michael J. Fox’s documentary, supporting her old friend. She looked unrecognizable compared to her previous appearances.
Meg Ryan, who has consistently denied undergoing any plastic surgery or enhancements, showcased wrinkle-free skin, a plumper pout, and her trademark blonde locks.
Over the years, the appearance of the Golden Globe nominee has changed significantly, fueling numerous rumors about whether or not she has undergone any cosmetic procedures.
When asked about the speculation surrounding her plastic surgery, she stated in an interview, “I don’t pay a lot of attention, frankly.”
Focusing on building her family, Ryan is almost entirely absent from the public eye. She adopted a child and is a single mom of 2.
There’s no doubt that Meg Ryan is an inspiration for us all. She chooses to look beyond people’s judgments in all aspects of her life and refuses to let public opinion define who she truly is.
