Dormouse is used as a name for any mouse, usually of the smaller varieties. To understand "dormouse" you have to back to the original French word "dormeus" ,or "the sleeper". The english misunderstood the world and thought it was "mouse" not "meuse". The term was applied to mice that cater sleepy or dormant during the winter months
