Mouse as a Pet: Buy Colored Mice

Mice come in different breeds. The color mouse is a widespread and uncomplicated species.

Another relatively easy-care species is the Mongolian gerbil and its subspecies, the gerbil. The gerbils, which originally lived in steppes and deserts, are suitable pets for beginners. Note that the gerbil needs a lot of space to dig. Unlike color mice and gerbils, the spiny mouse is still very similar to the wild mouse, which is why it is not tame and is only suitable for experienced owners. Now read in the guide what you should consider when buying a mouse as a pet.

The Welfare of Mice

In order for your mice to feel comfortable, you should definitely keep them in pairs or in a larger group, but never with rats or other rodents. Mice are very social animals that constantly want to interact with their fellow animals. You can’t replace that, even if you keep busy with your mouse. Mice are small in size but need a large animal shelter with enough space to run and dig. Regular exercise in the apartment is also a must.
