Yes, I would. The mouse needs food, or he will die.
The philosophical implications of this question are immense. The mouse needs food, but it with annoy the heck out of us later on, milking us for all we're worth. If we know that it will do this, even before giving it the cookie, then we should have the common sense to leave the mouse to starve, and get on with our prosperous lives, right?
Wrong. That philosophy leaves out an important aspect of life: compassion. Is it wrong to leave someone to starve? Yes. Is it also wrong to milk your savior dry? Yes. But the fact that someone else will do wrong to us in the future should not stop us from doing the right thing now.

Of course! Every parent has, you know it is only the first step in the process but you really want the mouse to be happy so you feed it the cookie.

No, I would wait for it to express itself. It would be impolite not to say it might give that particular mouse indigestion.
In a wider perspective, it is more important to do what seems right to you, not what is generally right in the eyes of the world .
We wish to satisfy the mouse or your inner self as opposed to satisfying the world and giving the mouse indigestion

Yes. Same reason I'd give a moose a muffin.
