Then you should get a cat. The problem is not a mouse- the problem is that your brakes are wearing out. They are designed to make a noise to tell you that. Skip the cat, take your car to a shop where a mechanic can replace the worn parts. They can check for mice at the same time.

Your car may fluctuate in idle while applying the brakes due to a problem in the computer. Everything in cars nowadays is regulated by the ECM(Electronic Control Module). A few simple diagnostics tests done by a certified tech can tell you what exactly the problem is. You may also have a bad power brake vacuum booster, this would effect the engine idle when the brakes are applied.
If the pedal firms up after pumping a few times, its probably air in the lines. Bleed the brakes. If this does not solve the problem look for leaks and record your symptoms in detail to tell your mechanic and go see him soon!
