Hey guys!

So I did look for a thread already about pet mice, but the only thread I found was about feeding them raw Although my girls are always trying to eat my mice!!

This is Peanut :3



And this is Da Vinci :3



They may or may not be brothers, I'm not sure. These mice were purely bred to feed snakes but I rescued these 2 before they were all gassed.
When I got them I had no clue about mice, this was my first time keeping mice but I'm happy to report after 6 months they are both still alive and kicking, although they have their own cages since I had no idea male mice fight!!

Would I get more mice in the future? 100% yes! They love being out, (well apart from when Sasha and Skye try to eat them!) having play time, people have a view that mice are dirty and horrible but they couldn't be more wrong, they make such great pets

Anyone else here keep mice?

Yes...but not willingly It's just the two of us now and I don't get upstairs all that often. Today I was up there and in the front bedroom, the stench of mouse was awful. My work is cut out for me tomorrow - the 2 top dresser drawers were clearly used for nesting. I'm afraid the odor my have permeated the wood - and I have to find out where they got all the stuffing-fluff for nesting - it's either the mattress, the box spring or, worst sceneario, the leather couch in that room...

My boy gobbles up the little field mice and voles every chance he gets. I would carefully watch yours - these dogs can be QUICK!

Rats are great pets.

I have to agree with amymeme, the mice and I don't get along at all. Especially with their fondness for my food and them pooping in every storage space if not killed.

Domesticated mice don't sound as evil though... I guess... xD

Aww you guys are so mean LOL, but I do know what you mean, we had mice in the ceiling when I was a kid, used to keep me up all night lol. I pretty much love all animals though, our house would be a zoo if my OH didn't have anything to say about it hahaha!!

I actually love mice! I think they're super cute. I used to have two a couple of years ago. Sadly they passed away about a week apart from each other after having them for two years (which I think is their life span). I like Peanut haha
