One of my mice just died :( The other is really sick. Is she going to die soon??

Question

I don't kill them! One of them (Jade) has a huge tumour and the other one got a little bit skinny. Then today I got home from work and Ivory was deceased. I only had Ivory and Jade and they were very good friends. Is it likely that Jade will die in the next few days? The vet said, last week, that she thought maybe they would make it a week but not likely. Ivory had done just over a week and Jade is looking all over for Ivory now. I let her say goodbye but I don't think she wants to accept Ivory is gone (I know I don't). Do you think Jade is going to die soon because she will be lonely? Like, more soon than just the tumour killing her? How long do you think I have left with her? She is active but so was Ivory until the last minutes.

Answer 1

buy a new mouse which is a bit younger then jade. that way they will probably get to know each other better and jade will forget about ivory disappering.if you dont want to get a new mouse take jade out and play with her as much as you can that way she won't be alone in her cage looking for ivory. i think the only way jade would die is if she was old or had a disease.

oh by the way take her back to the vets soon and tell them she made it over a week and then they might say she wont die for a while.
