Generally, mice don't really bite unless you injure (holding them tightly for example) them or scare them pretty badly (Holding them in a closed hand can do this...just let them walk freely on your open hand) . If you're having a problem, try washing your hands before handling. them. You may have the smell of something tasty on your hands, and they're just hungry. Aside from that, biting really isn't a problem you should be having with mice.
uh actually mice bite if u stick your finger in there cage and mice do bite i have heaps of my own and some bite did you no that mice only live for 3 yrs at the max so look after your pet and another reason mice bite is if they have young babys and young baby mice are called pinkeys.My mouse cupcake used to bitre when she was due to have babys biting is usely caused by stress and bing aressive towards your mouse
To show Affection - if they lick and nibble you they are accepting you as a close friend and a member of there family
No, Not if they are properly cared for then they will love you forever with the odd nibble or bite (until they know you more better)
In the wild yes they are, But if you keep a pet rat then you can train them to sleep when you sleep. But yes they are naturally Nocturnal.
No. All pet rats are vaccinated.
they will nibble on wood chew toy..... you can get them at your local pet store...
You can find pet rats in a lot of pet stores, or animal rescues. You can find wild rats just about anywhere.
No, this is not true. Rats have long sharp teeth and if they nibble on your finger tips it will feel just like any other animal nibbling on your finger tips. My five rats nibble on my finger all the time and yes, you can feel it. Assuming they are properly socialized, they won't bite. It is only when they start nibbling all my whiskers off above my lip that it gets a bit uncomfortable.
its not all pet rats its just the ones that are black and white because it looks somewhat like a tuxedo
Yes
No, they can sometimes prevent them!
Lab Rats - 2012 Rats on a Train 1-5 was released on: USA: 19 March 2012
Pet rats are not vermin. Pet rats are raised in a pet store, laboratory, or adoption center and they are raised to be pets or in the case of labs, experiments. if you are thinking of buying a rat remember not to buy a rat raised as food for snakes. Rats bred to be pets are much gentler and sweeter than rats raised as food.
