Mac Plus mouse (& drive?) wanted

I think the subject says it all - I just got hold of a Mac Plus, but I can't use it without a mouse - and I didn't get that when I found this machine. It predates the ADB and would have a DB9M connector on the end of the cable (apparently this is the same mouse used by the original Mac and the Apple IIe, etc.) - anybody out there have one? How about the pinouts? Maybe I can kludge together a homemade connector to connect an ADB mouse or a serial PC mouse?
Additionally, this computer has an 800 KB floppy drive - can I successfully install a 1.44 MB floppy drive in it and have it work properly? Alternatively, does anyone know of a good source for 800 KB diskettes?
