I have to agree. That seems an awful lot of damage, done very quickly for one little mouse. I would think you either have something bigger like rat or squirrel or a whole lot of mice. Either way, I would be on the phone with an exterminator darn quick as any of those can do a whole lot more damage than a bit of torn batting, like chewing wires which will short and cause electrical fire.

Not only that but you may wish to inspect your stash of batting, fabrics and such for more evidence of raiding and infestation. The last thing you want is any of these rodents trying to make a nest in your home and that certainly looks like what is on their mind. I'd be setting out poison and/or traps.
