We started out with 4 rats: Cake, Ice Cream, Ashley, & Dumbo for our daughter who wanted her own pet. We recently added 7 mice to the family. 6 females: Spot, Stripe, Oreo, Cookie, Fudge, Buttercup & the one male, Snow. Unfortunately we loss Buttercup to old age, (she was given to us by a family who no longer wanted her around). We bred all 5 females. Stripe had 3 babies 2 weeks ago and Fudge had 8 a week ago. We are expecting Oreo and Spot to have their babies any time now. My favorite, Cookie has become sick, showing signs of dehydration and is breathing heavy. We also believe she is pregnant. We don't have a vet around that takes care of rodents so I'm doing what I can for her. I don't think she is going to make it though. It is so fun to watch our daughter holding all the mice on her shoulder. We love them all and they really do make great first pets for kids as long as the child is old enough to care for them and be careful with them. We even have a photo album for all of our pets.

I love my little mouse Lucy- I only have one but she is the most beautiful mouse ever. She brings me so much joy and I am happy she wasn't doomed to the short life of being snake food. I love her and try to take care of her as best I can. She's so wonderful and makes me so happy because she's so cute!

I love mice, they make the best pets, I have 33 of them now and keep them mostly in big aquariams I've bought at yard sales, that's the best place to get tanks, just watch the paper. I have a wide range of kinds, like Pintos and a Silky, plus I have a chocotate fox who was born with no ears, isn't that weird? 2 months ago I bought a Pinto and she had 11 babies, and I managed to keep 5 of them, the rest went back to the pet store. Now I just try to buy older mice from stores where they're not being taken care of, so I can give them a good life...

I have 4 mice! Bleck is my favorite.. Boomer went insane and had to be seperated and i think Fleep is retarded but i still love them. Dashelle is the youngest and he is the prettiest but Bleck is still the best... he pretty much rules the cage. I love when they smoosh there bodies against the cage. Boomer is a fatty he loves junk food.. i think i over feed them. Oh well it's because i loooooove my babies :)

Well i had one mouse, who is a baby girl and i got another one just yesterday. He might be a male, but whenever Willow (the girl mouse) is around, Domino (Male mouse) starts to chase her and bite her. I HATE it when that happens, so i separated both of them and i am going to give Domino away. im pretty sad
