What is wrong with this sentence Neither the mouse nor the rats could find its way through the maze?

It should be:
Neither the mouse nor the rats could find their way through the maze.
ANS2:I will venture to postulate that the "its" could refer to an antecedent that had been presented in a preceding sentence:(The cheese was wrapped hermetically in plastic and dragged through the maze.) Neither the mouse nor the rats could find its way through the maze.
In this case, the rodents were unable to find the way of the cheese (its way) so, the sentence makes perfect grammatical sense.
Also, the rodents may have not all followed the same path...such being the nature of trial-and-error solutions. In that case, each rodent would have to find its own way and force you to make "way" plural.
Neither the mouse nor the rats could find their ways through the maze.
