how to look after your pet mouse

[DuskProductions000]

TheJohnyun, when mommy mice try to eat their babies, its because if someone or something disturbed them while they were pregnant. The stress is in their mind and causes them to want to eat their own babies. Its weird but true...

[Kamandi08]

i put my mice on frisbees in a deep pool it is awsome they drown and die!!!

[Kamandi08]

It is so cruel to bath them, I dont do that to my mouse!!!

[SuperBilly124]

Bath them ?? On every other page it says do not bath them !! It's cruel , it can cause TMU and kill them !!

[TheJohnyun]

my mouse is trying to eat it's pups what do I do??!???! someone pls reply!!!!!!

[tigers3010]

@TheJohnyun You can hand raise them it hard but it works you need a paint brush, goats milk, and Q-tips. Type in how raise a mouse and click on the one by creekvalleycrittters

[XlTpacman]

@hammythehamster27 there about 5 to 7 pounds and cages very from 15 to 90 pounds depends on if its glass or with bars and how big it is

[58windsong]

Don't use wood shavings!! Kills Mice. Use pellets instead (at Pet store)

[Gpigluv]

You have a lot of mice! Do you breed them or something?

[twarrypotterjr]

are those all male or felmale? and how many are there

[HammyTheHamster127]

are mice good pets to have? and are they cheap?

[rwjrock1]

@HammyTheHamster127 nah, a good cage is around 25 dollars and each mice is around 2 dollars,oh and dont bathe them

[HammyTheHamster127]

@rwjrock1 sorry i dont live in Amarica! does anyone know how much mice are in the UK?

[TheJuggla1000]

the one real use full thing she said was the type of bedding. last time I used that type, one of my mice had severe upper respiratory problems. and eventually died. not saying that it'll kill all ur mice.l, but theres a good chance one of will get sick from it.

[Reptiledictionary225]

How many can fit into a 15 gallon long? If 3 can comfortably live in a 10 gallon I'm guessing Mabe 5

[kingkevin1996]

@Reptiledictionary225 it fits 4 mice

[SteffiMess]

They are so cute!

I used to bathe my mice, I used to even go as far to use soap. Only on their backs though but stupid idea really, he hated it every time.

I still love how many that you have too though, lots of company but they MUST get into a lot of fights. Hopefully you have a big enough cage for those stinkers! XD

[olivesya12]

Where did u get the tank? And WHERE DID U GET THE MICE???? so cute.

[hueyfreeman300]

its 2 many of them in that tank but good vidoe good vidoe

[poopstiar]

OMGysh theyso cute!!! =]

[mrmrmr11223344556677]

@superphil92 Really? the normal nice are 2$ the fancy ones are 20. I ended up just getting robo hamsters

[thehamstey]

my mouse wont be tame i handle him every day but he runs into a different part of his cage when i put my hand in or feed him a piece of bread !HELP! please ;)

[Redwallforever]

bathing is good to reduce the smell, but absolutely not to long! They might get panic.

I always dip my mice quickly and gentle, and some of them actually enyoys it. And the smell... they don´t smell at all. Lovely!

[gre3nDAYrocks]

If you want to clean your mouse you should give it a dust bath

[mrmrmr11223344556677]

Ok... there like 20$ right?

[superphil92]

@mrmrmr11223344556677 mice are 2 dollars were I live

[nickandfrogs]

OMG stop bathinh it you will make it die!:(

[mrmrmr11223344556677]

what kind of mouse are they

[nickandfrogs]

@mrmrmr11223344556677 they are fancy mice.:)

[4mewasp]

Yes mice can swim and they may occasionally go into water, but they quickly become hypothermic...I don't agree giving them a bath or washing them.

[brirock105]

u r such a good owner of mice.=)

[brirock105]

wire wheels are not rlly bad but plastic wheels r better

[mouserock1]

u have A LOT of mice!

[HushHushHalo4]

Do caged mice reproduce?

[TheDakinesurfahboi]

@HushHushHalo4 No shet

[TheDakinesurfahboi]

@HushHushHalo4 im sorry

[TheDakinesurfahboi]

@HushHushHalo4 im sorry mine did

[brirock105]

@HushHushHalo4 yes but if u nuter/spay the mice they wont thats y u should cage 2 females or more with males u should get them at the same time so they wont fight each other and cause injerys to one another

[HushHushHalo4]

Okay thanks

[sladar26]

does anyone noe wad is the minimum requirement for the tank to house 3 mice? pls reply to me

[juliaeharrold]

You are not should not give mice a bath.

[antisamo99]

I want one

[JustineHinz]

how many damn mice do u need? goodness sake LoL

[ANN1217926]

how mene mice do u hav

[KandyBat]

@waterpologuy11 NO

[KandyBat]

So cute <3 I have rats, but I'd imagine the two are very similar apart from size. It seems as though you have too many mice together in such a small cage?

[Myheroscape30]

Awesome vid, you rule 5 stars

[xXheartsbzXx]

your actually not supposed to use wood shavings for bedingg

[007darkstar]

those r fancy mice right i got the same ones ur not supposed to wash them they wash themselves everyday and if u put cardboard inside theyll start eating it

[qinzuo]

to bad i can't any my mom is scared of them

[KandyBat]

@qinzuo I hear that a lot from people. I live with my grandma, very old fasdhioned and VERY squemish. She absolutly ADORES my rats <3 aside from their tails lol. [: It's a different scenario but pretty similar. Perhaps let ur mother see them for herself someday? How loving and adorable they are? ^.^

[qinzuo]

@KandyBat she saw them loads of times and it looks as if she will faint

[jadeslpsfamily]

First of all bathing a pet mouse could make your mouse cold uncomforable and threatened.if you wet the mouse on the face it could make the mouse think of you more as a predater then a loving.Next mice need more then just dried seeds and chewy fruit.they need refreshing vegtebles and juicy fresh fruit.mice will kinda get bored of the same plain food.sencond of all if you are considering more then 2 mice being housed in one cage you are going to need a bigger water bottle next comment says more

[jadeslpsfamily]

... and you are definently going to need to change that hide box every other day because i'm sure it smells under its conditions.next that begging expecialy if a mouse gived birth will have toxic oders go through the nostrils and harm the youth.shredded newspaper may be used to stuff the hide box and make it lessscary and more safe expecialy if its a new mouse or a baby.next a noisy wheel could annoy the mice and make them cranky and even harm their great stunning ears.next text thing says more!

[jadeslpsfamily]

so yeah play tubes and stuff...well is so small and stuffy inside you see cardboard hide boxes breath and plastic does'nt so what does that meen?no wonder worms do better in shoe boxes then my plastic carry bag...

[WrongCrazyBliss]

how many do u have?

[elsastu]

Very cute thanks for sharing.

[TheRatGirl4ever]

No amount of toys could sub for human affection. So if you don't have time to play with each mouse personally, don't get mice.

[TheRatGirl4ever]

Actualy, wood shavings are hard on their feet. Shredded paper towels are better.

[mouserock1]

here is a tip on washing your pet mouse: when you wash it dot fill your sink or bole so your mouse cant touch the bottom. makes sure your mouse can touch the bottom and you lightly pour a small amount on its back. make sure you use water that is a little worm. not cold, not hot, warm. you have to make sure that ur mouse is not going to be in hot water or cold water. sont leave your mouse having to swim. it is not the best thing to do.

its your choise not mine.

[Foxheart101]

@nathylane @nathylane I know that, i was saying it wouldve been alot healthier than the chocolate. Humans are one of the fe animals that can digest lactose after a certain age and caffine is horible as well. But the caffine versus lactose, the cheese wold have been a much healthier alternative and if you had read my 1st post i have already stated this.

[Thinkoftheanimals1]

Your mice are very cute ^_^ thank you for this video maybe now my mom will let me buy one :)

[DarkAngelAzreil]

O.O AHHHHHHHHH I have cedar shavings for my mouse....I need to get down to the pet store right now...I need to empty her cage.

[legalizeweed99]

hey, I just brought 2 pet mice. I put them in a big plastic bin but is the gravel required?? I also chopped up a banana and some cheddar cheese for them is this a good thing?? do they need some type of mice pellets to eat?? someone plese respond. ty

[Foxheart101]

@legalizeweed99 Gravel? That might hurt their feet. Get Aspen or Carefresh bedding; a bit of banana is fine but cheese isnt all that great as it has milk in it and all. Yes they need a formulated diet based on their needs; shouldn't you have studied your pet before you got them?

[XxGoCrazyGurlxX]

i always thought mice liked chocolate more than cheese.

Once there was one in the work shop in my school and they used chocolate to catch it And i was there too i gave up my break and lunch time to help catch and make sure they didnt hurt it

[Foxheart101]

@XxGoCrazyGurlxX Chocolate? Who DOESN'T like chocolate xD... other than my one friend.... though cheese would have been a much healthier alternative ;P

[Kaye558]

Please do NOT bathe your mice. They could get really cold when wet. And mice rarely bite. They only bite when they are pregnant or has babies. Or when they are frightened.

Anyway, nice video! And SUPER cute mice!

[GirtopolisArashiki]

Couple Questions..

How long do well taken care of mice live? And how many mice can you keep safely in a 2 gallon container? P.s i love how your mice ignored the normal food when you put out bread.

[QueenBooba1]

I put water on my finger and spread it on my pet Mouse's back. And When I have done, to say thank you he licks my hand :)

[hl2og]

A bath is like an insurance for death here... for pets like mice.

[rosecarr2]

hey ur mice r so cute

i have 2 and i have the exact same wheel but red.

[XxPORTSMOUTHxX]

could people message me about mice and how to keep them becuase im planning on getting one next week ;)

[micahboynton]

wood shavings are bad...

[wolvesrock1011]

mice r nice,they dont bite!

[FlynnM869]

yes they do, they bite when they are scared

[Maengun0Odayin]

dont bathe your mice

[abeblader]

@Maengun0Odayin y?

[abeblader]

@Maengun0Odayin nvm

[mermaidamp]

People love mice sometimes.

[taleoflies]

@mermaidamp there so cute!

[RussianGuRl007]

could you use news paper or something to soak up their pee ? and i dont have one of those bottle things . could i use a peanut butter lid for water and all?

[melissainnovascotia]

Mice don't need to be washed by us... they clean themselves. DON'T drop your scared mice into water!

[peiliukas]

how many mice do you have??

[vkyle52]

Btw I have a question, some say that if you take care of it when its a baby, then it will like you more when it becomes an adult. Is this true? BTW Nice mouse! Very cute :)

[jukebocks77]

yea its true because when its a baby it cant realy run away so it can grow up getting used to a human presence

[vkyle52]

I'm currently researching on how to care for mouse because I have the lack of knowledge on how to do so. I faved your vid because it has very good information! :) One time, my mouse escaped the cage and a rat killed it. I was like "WTF WHY DID U KILL MEH MICE?!"

[sashxobrittoxdet]

can u use woodshavings 4 guinea pigs???... bcause i used to but now i use hay. plz plz plz some1 reply!!!

[CrazyBirdThing]

no the oils in the wood can irritate their eyes.

[stephmortimer1]

Your talking about how to care for a mouse when you can't even do it yourself.

The running wheel you have can harm your mouse. While it runs on it, their leg might fall through and may break it.

How can drowning the poor creature help? Pfft how stupid.

[Mariaelizabeth98]

You don't need to wash them! they spend a lot of time cleaning themselves, and you don't need to help them. They are very tiny, and could be drowned in water.

[sissygd]

@Mariaelizabeth98 hey not trying to be unkind or anything but did you notice it isnt even swmming? the mouse is walking about leg deep in water.... it won't drown by that much water

[Jade7272]

@Mariaelizabeth98 i agree with not using a little tub or anything... but my mouse liked to be sprayed with a little spritzer bottle a couple times :)

[nemomonsta]

@Mariaelizabeth98 I agree that you dont need to wash them. But mice can swin so they wont drown... But yeah you dont need to wash them :)

[inf1n1tie]

Mmmm.... Muffin Bars...

[tazrockslikecool456]

too bad i cant get mice until i move out. but then i might not want mice but who cares im gonna have a MOUSE FARM.

[ExtremePeanutNinga]

I have one mouse and he is very scared and shy, i think its because hes young.

He also sleeps alot..... its so cute when he wraps himself in a little ball in his little house. =)

[MsNicholeP]

u r sooo wrong if u use wood shavings it gives all rodents respatory desieses wow ur dome

[burnedparadise]

you are 100000000000000000000000000000­000000000000000000000000000000­% wrong!!

[jadeslpsfamily]

no do not use wood shavings do not bath them cause they can clean themselfs they are intelegent living things and and do not poor food in during they eat and dont give them pleny of things to do cause sometimes it gets crowded and for the bedding use newspapper cause then they can make there own littlest rest beds!!!you will have to pay less money on it if you follow my wise intrucsunes

[Littleone89]

Yeah, I never had to wash my mice. I was always afraid if I washed them, they would get cold from being wet and get sick.

[Mariaelizabeth98]

CMNL3405, i use cat litter. It looks like pellets but it isn't. That is very absorbant. Aspen shavings are good. Or recycled paper called Carefresh.

[CMNL3405]

Your mice are soo cute!!!! This is going to be my first time having a pet mouse and wut bedding would be the best????

[thommashardy]

lol the washing part is so cute

[Dillontv6190]

i am gunna get 2 for my birthday cant wait

[iDontNeedaUsernam]

I have two mice. I love them both very much and try to get what they need. I used to use pine bedding and no respiratory problems nor physical stress was noticed. My mice were bought at PetCo and were not "tame" as the man put it. They have been handled and cared for daily. These mice weren't meant to be saved. They are Albino House Mice, doomed to be eaten. They are, at this moment, alive and well.

[dogagilitygeek]

do you breed your mice!!! they are so cute my friend has some and they are so sweet they cuddle up with you and fall a sleep in your hands after a while of petting them!!!☺☻♥♦♣♠•◘○

[singstar420]

how many mouses do u have they r so adorable :) cute i have some i got 6 lols

[lamboooooooooo1]

do they really eat bread

[laner666dude]

i love the vid but i dont know if u should bath them lol i love ure mice

[ReiRaeReeta]

I don't get it. D: On the back of my pine bedding it SAYS it's for gerbils, hams, and MICE!!! T~T

[nickjonas5500]

Don't use pine. It will kill them.

[ReiRaeReeta]

Then why does it say it's for mice!?!?!!?

[nickjonas5500]

Obviously it says for mice, the COMPANY will make much more money off of it if it's for multiple pets.

[ReiRaeReeta]

:O Can't they be taken to court for that though? That's so mean. :(

I have the recycle paper bedding stuff now, BTW. :)

[HedgeyCircus]

rakuraitori, I totally agree with you, but there were way to many mice in there! If you let them breed like that, it can be VERY stressful for the mothers and you will soon find your hands full with mice.

[rakuraitori]

Aww!! All your mice are adorable!! Just a few things though, I don't think those bar wheels are safe for mice, they get their feet and tails caught in between the bars and can break their fragile legs. Also I heard when I was looking into getting my mice that you shouldn't use sunflower seeds in their main diet, as that makes them become unhealthily fat. I think its ok for a once in a while treat though :)

Apart from those things I love the vid!! All your mice are adorable!! <3

[masteromar3256]

if you have a mouse that bites you,how can you teach it to stop? plz reply

[xXxKrAzYyxXx]

good video but i cannot here what you are saying because my damn speakers r shit and they wont work

[sandrasandrasandraa]

Very cute mice btw ^^!! I had mice before, but when they were gone i bought a dwarfhamster instead. Maybe I'll buy mice the next time :P.

[tatimisters]

wow! thats a LOT of VERY CUTE mice!!!

[Alynnflint]

omg! how many mice do you have?

[SOM3Vi3T]

cool , i was planning to buy mice as a pet. and give my hamster to my cousin or uncle.

[sandrasandrasandraa]

Why would you do that? :/ Don't you love your little hammy? I think you will miss him/her if you do that..

[SOM3Vi3T]

ofc i love my hammies. i havent gotten to the fact that i was thinking of givving them away. i still have them and no pet mices yet.

[7updude]

YOU HAVE A CRAPLOAD OF MICE OMG!!!!! but they are cute!

[Poekai]

your evil!

close the wheel and dont throw a mouse in a water bowl when it cant get out!!

[7updude]

your right the wheel should have a close bottom but the mouse could reach the bottom of the bowl

[wekwafe]

what do you suggest fror bedding?

[sandrasandrasandraa]

Toiletpaper :)

[cavemankona1994]

nice vid its preety sweet i cant realy say that you should get more cages or wt eva coz at one time when i had a male i had 24 mice in one cage ;)

[ochenchi]

i just want to say i have 2 mice named spots and corn

[jo123phoebe]

Um, one thing you missed out - YOU SHOULD NEVER KEEP MORE THAN 5 MICE IN A CAGE, AND CERTAINLY NO MORE THEN 2 IN A CAGE YOUR SIZE!!!!!!!!!!!

Over-crowding WILL lead to boredom, bad habits, fighting, illness, stress, bullying and death!!!!!!!!

You REALLy need to get more cages to house all those mice - it is so cruel to keep them so cramped together - please just think about it.

[tomoyohyuuga]

wat eva they kept on breeding because the stupid shop keeper got me a male and a female and they kept on breeding so i bought 1 more cage and seperate them into females and male WHILE I BUILD THE NEW MOUSERY IN THE GARAGE THEM which is way bigger and this vid was ages ago

[cavemankona1994]

lol that has happened to me sooooo many times but it is a god idea to get them acouple more cages like off ebay like i do just conect them all to eachother with fun-nels or fun-a-maze tubes! they love it ! my mice are spoiled i have 4 and then have 3 wheels tones of tubing 3 houses 3 bowls 2 water botles and lots of playing equiptment!

[sweetie1039]

@jo123phoebe no we have 7 in a cage for 1 year already nothing happend

[misshollywoodlove]

@jo123phoebe hey do you know i you can keep two of the same sex mice in one cage as long as its a good size?

[jo123phoebe]

@misshollywoodlove Hi! :)You can always keep 2 FEMALE mice in the same cage, coz they are not aggressive. ^_^ But if you want to keep to MALES in the same cage, 1) they must be brothers and together since birth - if u separate them and then put them together, or put 2 unconnected males together, they will kill each other. 2) The cage must b big enough 4 each male to have his own space, 2 avoid fighting. Ive kept males very successfully like this, but females wud be best for a 1st time i think! x

[jadeslpsfamily]

@jo123phoebe uh no it wont

[olf267]

erm...one of those mice looks exactly like mine.

[tomoyohyuuga]

lolz i might of stole urs just kiddin

[cavemankona1994]

a few of them look like mine lol!

[92Funny]

cute good job but i dont like the weels like that cause one of mine got its tail stuck its fine now but we use the closed ones

[tomoyohyuuga]

i have the closed wheels but they dont like it so i took it away

[em17466]

you have so many mice and they are so cute, i only have one and i want more but i am not allowed.

[cavemankona1994]

if you read off mice information sites you will find that its bad to keep one mouse it gets reallllyy bored and is cold at night can you imagine living on your own all your life? it whould suck :( tell ur mum/dad or boath that lol make em feel sorry for the lil fella orrr secretly buy one lol thats what i did!

[ALW9876]

Cute Mice erm u spelt babys wrong but its a nice cute vid

[tomoyohyuuga]

sorry and thanks

[xbox360masterofgames]

thanks for the advice
