As with all small pets, we will need to be housed securely away from any other pets in the home.
Mice can make lovely first-time pets for children who can offer a calm, patient and confident approach. They enjoy coming out to be handled and will take treats from your hands.
A group of 2-4 mice will need a cage measuring at least 80cm wide by 50cm deep by 35cm high, with bar spacing of no more than 6mm. This will provide them with space for you to add lots of activities for them to climb and explore, as well as giving them enough floor space to do lots of running around on and bedding that they can dig and forage in. Although they are small, they are very busy and energetic.

Annabelle, Tiffany, Esther and Pennywise are looking for a forever home together as a group of 4. Pennywise is a neutered male and is enjoying have his 3 girls to keep him company. They are an active group that are often seen out and about exploring their surroundings. Due to them all being on the younger side, they do need a little more time confidence when it comes to being handled as they can be a little flighty. All of them enjoy a snuggly place to sleep such as hammock for cosy hide but also enjoy having lots to climb and explore. They all can sometimes be a little dramatic with each other and you will often here a little bit of squeaking, however this has never been encouraged by or progressed into any negative behaviours. If you can offer this group their forever home, please do get in touch with us via the website.
