To care for a mouse you need to give it a good cage with enough space and a water bottle for mice attached to the side of the cage. Give it 2 tablespoons of mouse food a day, also get it a little wooden house, a toilet paper tube or something else for privacy. Change its bedding (shavings) once a week, u do not need to give mice baths they will clean themselves like cats. You can try to hold them after they get used to you. Also they need exercise so they will stay healthy and in shape, so buy them an exercise wheel or some other exercise equipment. When u r ready to get a mouse buy one do not capture wild mice because they do not make good pets, (no offence mice). There are mouse breeders and pet stores, I like to buy them from pet stores because if I don't they usually end up being fed to snakes. But breeders' mice can be healthier.... anyway this is the most basic instructions for caring for mice, I suggest looking for more specific instructions if u need it. Oh, and hi to your new mouse for me when u get it!
