Mice
Mice are mainly nocturnal but can be seen during daylight hours.
Mice are very sociable creatures and like to have company.
House Mice originated in the central and southern parts of Asia, but are very adaptable and have spread all over the world. The Pet Mice or Fancy Mice are domesticated forms of the House Mouse. Today there are many different varieties of pet mice or fancy mice. The most common domestic mice are the white albino ones.
Mice are great pets for several reasons. They are small, inexpensive, and very easy to care for. Female mice are odourless. Mice also have constantly growing teeth, and so should be provided with something to chew on to keep them in good chewing condition.
