@VeritiBeauty

Because they dont care. They only care about the money.

[DiscoPuppies]

the title said HOW to set up a mouse cage, not what you need in a cage with a mouse.

[knr817]

i just got a pet mouse and my cousin told me how to take care of her and is it ok if she has a water bowl instead? and her food is around her cage.

[DarkAngelAzreil]

@knr817 I would get her a glass water bottle since they can't chew it up and put her food in a dish but that is because some mice like mine don't drink from bowls and she hates to get her whiskers wet.

[mrnicksk8]

do not put plastic food bowls in your mouce cage they tend to nibble on it and cant digest plastic so they die

[alysseiscool1]

15 umm's what size is that wheel

[MrStevedominguez]

too bad it was only 11 umms

[ROckDEcoy]

[MrStevedominguez]

@ROckDEcoy fuck you!

[MaddieMontJamesyWhi]

Shes just nervous. You guys need to chill out.

[jeang13]

[JOC1992]

[godfreek]

[Soteniliene]

um u mum umu m um

[airfoce26]

she said um 14 times lool

[cybermatthew]

if she says um 1 more time i will put a bullet in my head

[WamjamJeff]

um um um um. If she says um one more time im going to through my computer out of the f ucking window

[nohawksam]

wire wheels are ok but there is a small chance of them hurting themselves were as solid have an even smaller chance

[SamChapman1996]

#1: That cage is RIDICULOUSLY small.

#2: That mouse is on it's own, they should be kept in pairs as they are highly sociable.

#3: They can have wire wheels.

Honestly, These people know NOTHING!

[blondemax]

Its not that small for a mouse- but yeh i think i'd get him something bigger.

- but you should only group house FEMALE mice

Mile mile don't like other males (unless they are gay mice i guess but youd have to make sure they were both gay and i'm not sure where you get gay mice from)

[NadrianATRS]

if she says "um" one more freakin' time...

[mouseandpuppylover]

im going to get a mice so im not getting a wired wheel now. The store i go to has wired wheels for the mice in the cage but they dont get hurt but they still could. The companies who sell the wired wheels dont care. They just want the money as they're being jerks.

[CelineLovesMusic]

I have the same wheel!

Anyways, You should get those cages

They can escape

[love4ferrets]

i had one to! but it was a little bigger and my bro dropped it and it broke.

[VeritiBeauty]

geez. why do they sell wire wheels then if the mouse can get hurt?

[lilbeatch]

for hamsters but yeh they should just stop sellin them

[amylovesrats]

because the manufacturers don't care.

[etria702]

for the smae reason they make pet food that causes cancer in your pet

[boge101]

For hamsters. While they're not really recommended, I've had syrians with wire wheels (before I really knew that you shouldn't get them) and they've never had much of a problem. But solid wheels seem to be way quieter anyway.

[cybermatthew]

i was in my m8s the hamster was keeping us up and my m8s brother came in and through the hamster out the window

[jcstrides]

because wire wheels are cheaper and large companies don't care. As long as they make profit the animals don't matter. Its unfortunate but thats how it is

[RoscoTheRat]

@VeritiBeauty True that... but then again they still sell Ceder and pine beddings. :/

[greywolfeyes]

same reason they sell wheat-based dog foods that shorten dogs' lives by several years. business thrives on ignorance

[7anya]

It's really unfortunate because the first time I had a mouse I bought it a wire wheel like the one they had in their cage at the store. The mouse got caught in it just barely and from then on was afraid to run on it. I bought it three new wheels that were non-wire but he refused to run on any of them for very long. :( He died while I was away from home. I have two mice now and am glad I got the right one this time. I wish they told you these things at the store.

[TheRatGirl4ever]

@7anya The reason they don;t tell you that at the store, is cuz they don't know that. Pet stores are NOT a good place to get a pet. DON'T buy a pet at the pet store! Adopt a pet at a shelter, or responsible breeder.

[7anya]

@TheRatGirl4ever

Yes indeed, but I still haven't found anyone who breeds mice. Or even a shelter that carries them.

[DarkAngelAzreil]

@7anya If you live in Minnesota I work at a shelter that takes in mice ^-^ we have an unwatned litter that came in this month and most of the babies still need homes. Also The Fun Mouse forum is a must go place, they have breeders from all over the world on the forum and even organize ways to get your mouse to you ^-^ Hope that helps you hun.
