Pete Doherty was reportedly inspired by Courtney Love and sent Kate Moss a dead mouse.

A source said, "Some people might find it disgusting but it's still art, if in its extreme sense. Nobody balks when Damien Hirst puts a shark in formaldehyde and this is very similar."

"It's become the latest outlandish fashion statement in Manhattan but Pete is trying to emphasize how he feels without Kate - defeated, crushed and broken, like the dead animal."
