I used to have a little rat i just called "lil rat" he was so cool, he wouldn't bite or try to run away, he would just chill on my shoulder and eat nuts or raisins. He was cool. I miss him :( Most rodents arent very fun.

Rats rule. We had mice, and we loved them,but they were mostly just messy, inattentive little creatures (but cute as hell)

The rats were our babies, ripley and pippin. they both developed tumors around the same time this past year and had to be put down. it is probably the biggest loss i have felt in years.

very good idea.

Next time you feel the urge to get a pet rodent, i would definately go for a rat or two. believe it or not, they smell better and are much cleaner than mice.

I do get the mouse thing though. i loved the ones we had. used to love bathing them and seeing how tiny they REALLY are.

if what you are referring to is "Richard gere Approved" then no, and he will never smell any better if you do that.

That being said, mice live in sewers, i dont think lack of light will be too big an issue.

I loooove Gigantor. When I was really small, I mean really realy really small, I would actually try to get up early in the morning to watch it (Gigantor was on at 7 in the morning I think, and this was on our old black and white tv). 7 in the morning was early then. It's still early now. But yeah I loved that robot and I would make little cardboard cutout figures of him. This was the first thing I can remember that I liked enough to want to change my morning routine so that i could watch it. Kids love robots!

use this stuff, you can find it in most pet stores. It is made from recycled paper, and not only is it healthier for pets (no chemicals) it also absorbs more than pretty much anything else. We use it for our rabbit, and used it for our mice and rats before.

Next time you go to get bedding, get the carefresh, you will be much happier.

They usually recommend cleaning out wet spots every day, and changing all of it once a week. Of course, mice dont make a specific place for going to the bathroom (a lot of other animals do, raths and rabbits are really consistent). Mice just kind of shit everywhere.

But definately once a week. beyond that, it will turn into an ungodly mess
