Might be a good concept for a sci fi story actually, probably a comedic one. Scientists learn how to cure any disease and reverse aging, but only for mice. Conveniently for plot reasons, they also figure out how to turn people into mice and back. You can get any disease cured or become young again...but you have to spend three months as a mouse.
Someone that knows what they're doing: I will watch this show.
Is Anne Hathaway coming back as the grand witch?
I know of a short story on becoming a mouse, but that one's focus is something euthanasia adjacent.
I cannot remember what but I've heard of mention of a story where because there's so many cures of disease for mice that they take over the world or something. It's such a faint mention sorry
Pinky and the Brain. Obviously.
