Some examples of products that have been reverse engineered include software programs, electronic devices, pharmaceutical drugs, and automotive components. Reverse engineering allows for analyzing and understanding the design and functionality of these products to create improved versions or to develop competing products.
Rat fleas carried the pathogen that caused the plague. If the mice have been raised in a pet shop or by a breeder, there is not that great a chance of the baby mice having a disease. Unless you're talking about genetic disorders, which can arise from inbreeding. My husband and I have raised hundreds of mice and never had any problem with disease.

No. The horse has been selectively bred.
Yes. Well, at least assuming I understand you question. If by "engineered" you mean that it was though out to work according to the laws of physics, then yes. Every building since the Renaissance (and many before) has been "engineered". Maybe a peasant hovel might no have been, but even your house was most likely "engineered".

Genetically engineered proteins are important to many areas of human life such as agriculture, research, medicine and industry. Research is especially necessary for the possible cure of diseases that threaten every culture on Earth. Pharmaceutical companies can utilize the insulin and vaccines so necessary in developing countries.
A cat cannot give any disease that it does not have itself. A cat can bring in fleas from outside, and fleas may in turn carry diseases; and there is a slight potential for a cat to bring in infected mice (in drought-stricken areas, cats have been known to hunt and catch mice with hantavirus). But by and large, a healthy cat will not bring any significant diseases with him.
Not at all. There are many foods that you eat that have been genetically engineered to produce something better or faster than before.
The answer should probably be "No". I researched this online and it is always recommended against. But, I caught a wild mouse and keep her as a pet rather than kill her or release her to the cold Chicago winter. She ran on her wheel and explored her cage for a few weeks, but then quit. I was worried that she was getting lonely so I bought another female from the pet store. They live together fine without issues. They sometimes sleep together and sometimes sleep in separate houses. The only concern is that 90% of wild mice carry diseases and may pass them on to the store bought mice. My answer is yes, I have had field mice to live over 3 years in with my domestic mice. For 4 years now I have been trying to cross breed field mice with domestic ones. No success with the cross breeding yet, It seems that the male domestic mice are too large and cause the female field mice to hemorrhage when breeding, I have not been able to keep a male field mouse long enough to breed with a domestic female yet.
Vaccines are inert or harmless weak versions of deadly viruses and diseases, when given to you your own immune system will develop immunity to them. Many fatal diseases have been effectively cured this way, the only danger is in not getting vaccinated.
