Does anyone know anything about mice?

Question

Well, I just found a little mouse in my backyard and I saved it from my neighbors cat's. It was very sick and I thought it was going to die, But after a day it is eating a drinking. So I was wondering if anyone knew what they like to eat, and how long they live, etc., etc.

P.S. I dont know what type of mouse it is, but its a little white mouse with red eyes. And they usually have the type of mice at petco.

Answer 1

It's an albino, sounds like it might be an escaped pet! Although they can occur naturally in the wild of course.

Mice only live up to three years, sometimes only a year. Of course you don't know how old this one is. Get some mouse/gerbil food from a pet store, and a nice big cage with a wheel, little houses and toys.

Answer 2

it was probably somebody's feeder mouse or pet mouse that got loose. Post up FOUND signs. It could be a little kids.
