As mice tend to acclimate easily to average household temperatures, it's important that their mouse cages allow for plenty of ventilation and are not placed in areas that received direct sunlight, as excessive heat can be detrimental to health of your pet mice. With a preference for cleanliness, mice generally don't need baths, but can be spot-cleaned if needed. This preference for being kept clean requires their mice supplies, toys and other fixtures within their cages to be cleaned on a weekly basis and for their bedding to be replaced weekly as well.

Naturally curious and playful, mice are clever escape artists, which is why mouse cages and habitats must be secured well enough to contain them. Pet mice are omnivorous and aren't particularly picky when it comes to food; however, it's important that they eat a well-balanced diet, such as Kaytee Forti-Diet Crunch with Dental Bites or Carefresh Complete Mouse & Rat Food. Mice supplies, such as hideaways and toys are important as they keep them occupied, while soft and absorbent bedding allows them to burrow as it also maintains the hygiene within their cages. Bring some joy into your pet mouse's life with a tasty treat along with other supplies meant to keep him healthy and content.
