Hi Morn,

I am afraid that the word souris is feminine.

The rule you mention is a rule of thumb and in any case, there are always exceptions to any grammatical rules you will learn.

Bonne Continuation!

If i remember correctly there are exceptions to these rules like words ending with s,x, and something else that I don't remember maybe e since that is already feminine
