This mouse is determined to ring in the New Year with a bang. After attending all of the parties it could find, it has emerged with someone else's oversized shirt, a tie that should be outlawed, and sixty pounds of fireworks which have been outlawed in most cities. The New Year's mouse intends to put on a light show so amazing that it lights up the sky for the rest of the year-- the only problem is that it hasn't really thought about how it's going to get off the ground.
Mouse ID#: 141


Preferred Cheese

During the Great Winter Snowball Fight they could only be attracted with Snowball Bocconcini. In 2010, there were some reports that hunters were successful attracting this mouse after switching to SUPER|brie+ cheese. In 2011, New Year's mice were found to be especially attracted to Festive Feta cheese, to the point that any other kind of cheese simply would not suffice. In 2013 and 2014, New Year's mice had no specific preference for any kind of cheese, and were available in all stages of the event.

Hunting Strategy

In 2010 and 2011, Firecracker Charms or Nitropop Charms had to be armed in order to attract this mouse. In 2013, they were available using any charm, or none at all. In 2013, they required Snowball Bocconcini cheese.
