U+1F401 · emoji since 2015
The mouse is the full little rodent, whiskers to tail. It means small, quick, and quiet, plus lab mice and the Year of the Rat's smaller cousin.
It tags tiny things, sneaky snack runs, and being quiet as a mouse when the meeting could have been an email.
In texting, 🐁 does not carry a widely used hidden or slang meaning, so you can usually take it at face value. People send it just as it looks, to add a little visual touch or set the mood of a message. Only a handful of emoji have a separate texting code, and 🐁 is not really one of them.
Its official Unicode name is the Mouse emoji. In everyday chat most people just call it the mouse emoji or describe what it shows. Copy and paste it from the button at the top of this page.
The 🐁 leads off a short phrase, and the rest of the words are written in cipher, every letter disguised as another emoji. Tap decipher to reveal the whole line.
Or make your own cipher in the translator.
