At most institutions, there is a special staff which cares for the animals. They are independent of the research staff at many institutions, so that they provide an extra layer of care and support. They are also a secondary method to report abuses and make sure the animals are healthy and happy. Many labs are in charge of creating the feeding schedules for the animals, but on the weekends or holidays, the staff care for them. They are also usually in charge of making sure cages or recreational areas are clean and well-kept. The animals are usually kept at a target weight which will not harm them, but keeps them motivated for experiments. After they are through with whatever experiments they are being used for, most are euthanized either by injection or by gas, but larger animals such as dogs, cats, monkeys, and apes are retired, and sent to sanctuary areas where they live out their natural lives.

Laboratory animals are used to test the efficiency of various ideas. Either the animals you do have will do the work or all you time and effort is wasted
No they are well cared for
A laboratory mouse is one of the most used animals when it comes to experiment and research. Right handling and care is required for the quality of science. Laboratory animals can be also treated as pets.
They save animals that are loved and are cared for

Give them a teet.. So that they feel happy!! :D
Some are, some aren't. Most domesticated animals are perfectly happy being sheltered, fed, and cared for.
