How do you take care of a fuzzy mouse?

Answer 1

I've taken care of them twice before, for fuzzy mice if it's eyes aren't open yet you need to feed it every 3-4 hours feed it kitten or puppy formula, soy milk or what I use is similac sensitive for fussiness&gas for infants....You'll have to warm it up and test it on your pinkie or the inside of your wrist, don't warm it up more than twice though or bacteria can build up in it and kill the mouse or make it really sick....Once it's eyes are open you don't need to feed it at night anymore and you can start weaning it with mouse food wetted with their formula or with oatmeal (unflavored) but still offer it formula every 3 to 4 hours during the day it may or may not eat every time.... You'll need to also keep it warm, it's best if you have a heating lamp and if you have a heating pad to put under the cage but only set it on low and only put it on half the cage (if the baby gets too hot it will move to the half that the heating pad isn't on) Also you will need warm bedding for it, for my mice I put a piece of insulation in there and then put a paper towel over it and lay them on it and then cover them with a paper towel too.... If they get too hot they may come out from under the towel or if they get cold they might go between the insulation and the paper towel (but watch it if it goes in the insulation that it doesn't get its head all in it and suffocate)
