'''Ms. Mowz''' is a [[Little Mouser]] encountered in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]''. She is the only optional party member available in the game; and depending on when the player acquires her, she is either the sixth or seventh member to join [[Mario]]'s party. She is known to constantly flirt with Mario, which tends to annoy [[Flurrie]] and [[Goombella]] (who occasionally calls Ms. Mowz a floozy). She has the useful ability to sniff out any type of item (Similar to [[Watt]]'s ability to show hidden items in the first ''[[Paper Mario]]''), ranging from [[coin]]s to items to [[Star Piece]]s; however, this ability is more like playing hot-and-cold, as straight answers are not given. In battle, Ms. Mowz  possesses the ability to cut through Defense.

Mario's first storyline encounter with Ms. Mowz is at [[Hooktail Castle]]. She later appears in Chapter 2, [[The Great Tree]] in [[Boggly Woods]]; and in Chapter 3, in the [[Glitz Pit]] storeroom. Mario can also encounter a maskless Ms. Mowz in her [[Rogueport]] shop, the [[Lovely Howz of Badges]]. Later, Mario goes to the [[Trouble Center]] and accepts the trouble marked "Elusive Badge!" by ??? (amusingly, he is told that taking anonymous requests could be dangerous), who he finds is actually Ms. Mowz. She asks Mario to find a badge in Hooktail Castle; she knows it's in Hooktail's room, but is unsure exactly where it is. She says that she has a clue: "Use The Power of the Wind...". If the player goes to Hooktail's room and blow on the area where Hooktail was before with Flurrie, a flap will blow away, revealing a chest that has an Attack FX badge inside. When he takes the badge back, Ms. Mowz reveals that she hid it there herself to test Mario's skills, and if he can find badges then she wants to be with him, and joins the party. At the very end of the adventure, she returns to running her badge shop.
