Well, you need a cage. You can buy these at almost all pet stores. Make sure you have a food dish, water bottle that attaches to the side of the cage and a running wheel for exercise. Put your mouse in this cage and give her some time to settle in. Remember that mice are social creatures and get lonely on their own, so a little companion for your mouse may be a good option. You don't need to get anything else expensive, mice are cheap, so when you have the cage, if it's dig enough, adding another mouse doesn't add much cost. Make sure you let your mouse get used to you, stay near the cage and speak to it. When it seems unafraid of you, start picking it up and stroking it. Good luck with your new pet :)

Your new white female mouse smells horrible you had a grey mouse before which did not smell?

Male mice tend to smell worse than females. I have never heard of washing a mouse, never did it to mine, and its probably dangerous and unneccessary for the mouse. Just make sure you're cleaning the cage and putting in fresh bedding every week. if your cage is too big to clean every week, down size it's easier to clean and 3 mice can live in one small 5 gallon tank I have never had a smelly mouse, but I have had mice. You have to wash your mouse and make sure it has water to roll around it. love, A + M

How old can a pet mouse get?

It all depends. Fortunately a pet mouse can live up to 24 or 36 months. Pet mouse color is mostly white, black, gray and brown. Also rodents make good pets(i.e: squirrel, racoon, rabbit, hamster and guiena pig.) Several people like fancy mice as pets (including me!) Within twelve weeks and after eight months, the mouse will breed. (Warning: You may not keep a pet mouse unattended; doing so so can be very dangerous, and you will lose the mouse. Public places also prohibit pets.) Despite those warnings, mouse training is a good way to keep mice healthy and get enough physical activity. After a week or two, the mouse will be week old. Mice will be 10 days old after 10 days. Within a few years, the mouse will die. With proper care, the mouse will live even longer. The mouse will live to five years or more. A cage will keep the mouse from straying. Even though mice are inexpensive, they cost a fortune. The cage is also inexpensive. Once you got the mouse, you can buy the food. And when the food comes, keep the mouse back into the cage. They can poop and eat a lot, so make sure you clean up the cage once a week. Mice can also escape very easily. Not letting the mouse get out of the cage is good for mice under the age of two days. But it also helps the male from smelling. The female also mates the male before breeding. The pups are born blind. All babies are born blind. And all mice are clean. Are all pet mice healthy? Yes, those rodents are healthy. And they, like other rodents, do not vomit


If i bought a female mouse and a week later i bought another female mouse would they get along?

Try introducing them in the bath tub(without the water in), its a neutral envoirnment so neither of them can get territorial and because the bath sides are too slippery for them to climb up they have no choice but to stay together. Obviously you have to introduse them over a few days (usually 2-3) and always be ready to squirt them with a water gun if they do get into a pickle.
