feed them to a snake

Make sure to keep your mice far far away from your cats in a locked room where they can't get at it. For the pregnant mouse here is some info:

Answer 3

I suggest getting a second cage for the pregnant mouse, as the male might eat the babies when they are born.  Babies are really easy to take care of, you don't have to do anything special for the mom, and she'll raise the babies without a problem.  After the babies are eating on their own, put up an ad on www.craigslist.com in your area, and give them away, or sell them cheaper than what a pet store sells them for.  You might want to sell the male too, and only have one mouse, or make sure you have two of the same s*x so you don't have babies.

If you aren't opposed to it, you might find somebody with a snake collection looking for feeder mice.  Pet store mice can be $2/each, you might be able to sell them as feeders for like $1/each or something.
