Most likely, if the mouse has a foot that has turned purple, the cotton has fibers wrapped around the tiny foot and has cut off circulation. The mouse may lose the foot but it may can be saved. It really depends on how long the foot has been without proper blood flow.

First, get a magnifying glass so you can see really well and remove the fibers from around the foot. If the foot hasn't been caught in the fibers for very long, it may regain circulation and heal.

Otherwise, the foot will die and fall off and the mouse will have a nub where the foot was but will otherwise be fine. They can deal with losing a foot fairly easily.

How do you get your wild baby mouse to take some milk if he seems scared of it?

I found a baby mouse once (no fur yet) and I got cotton batten and gently wrapped it around the baby mouse while I hand fed it. You mix milk, a drop of honey and WARM IT ONLY (test the milk on your inner wrist so it's body temperature.) I soaked a small piece of heavy duty paper toweling (didn't use clean rags because of laundry detergents residue). You'll know if they aren't hungry if they refuse to suckle on the milk soaked paper toweling. In a small clean bird cage (or something else you have around that will keep drafts away from the baby mouse, get a small box and put some cotton batten in it (not too thick where the baby mouse will suffocate.) The cotton batten is the next best thing to something soft like their mother. Be sure the mouse is in a warm and dry environment (your bedroom.) It's a MUST that you are constantly watching over the baby mouse. Takes patience, but they grow fast. My little mouse did and then I released down in a field. Good luck Marcy
