Field Mice


Field mice, as members of the rodent family, have long been viewed as vermin, pegged to be carriers of disease as well as responsible for causing significant damage in homes and other fixed structures.

But as relatively harmless as Fievel Mousekewitz from the 1986 animated classic An American Tail was, field mice actually make for good pets in domiciles, though the feasibility of training them is another matter altogether.

With the deer mouse considered to be the only dangerous type of mice found in fields, the field mouse proves to be the opposite of what its reputation has to say about it. Capable of cleaning itself, they far from being the unkempt slobs people are known to say about them, and as with most rodents, they are easy to keep due to how close they are to human households and communities.

Ideally, field mice should be kept in enclosures that are not made of wood, given the fact that they have a penchant for gnawing. Enclosures with swings or wheels are also advised by most pet care experts, since these distractions would prove handy in keeping field mice busy.

In terms of feeding, field mice are known to warm up to different types of seeds, along with clover flowers, dandelion flowers and greens. Cheese and crackers are also favored by field mice, and as they have grown popular as pets, the mouse food products found in most pet stores are also good dietary for pet field mice.

Generally cool, calm and composed, field mice are actually interesting pets to have, worthy of anyone who is in search for a unique pet’s attention and time.
