Adoption fees will be waived for mouse adoptions at Nevins Farm in Methuen, Massachusetts, this coming weekend for "Mouse-a-Palooza, September 9 and 10. The first 75 adopters will also get a starter kit complete with a tank, bedding, bottles, bowls and huts.
The MSPCA says mice usually live 1 to 2 years and are social animals, so consider a pair! If handled every day, mice should be comfortable with people. Letting them out of their cage or tank is good for exercise and stimulation.
