Halfpint's proper name is Apodemus, which is a suitably grand name for such a small critter. I'm pretty sure it's an adolescent field mouse: the long tail and huge back feet give it away.
Now, here's a dilemma. What to do with Halfpint? Vote now!
- Make it a little mouse house away from the cat, he's so cute.
- Feed it to the cat.
- Crush its vermin head under my boot-heel.
- Let it go somewhere a way away.
- Hideous experimentation, possibly involving recipes.

About 1/3 of the time I reckon the cat catches the same prey again after release.
