It is mouses.

The plural of mouse (small furry creature) is mice, so one might think that the plural of the pointing device would also be mice. However, the two words have undergone a differentiation through usage. According to Garner's Modern American Usage, the best practice is to pluralize it mouses. That also goes for timid people ("When it comes to warfare, he's a real mouse. In fact, he comes from a long line of mouses").

Similarly, whereas the plural of louse, the small wingless insect, is lice, the plural of louse, the cad, is louses.
