Re: New Mouse
If she has one, she'll need prescription antibiotics.

Re: New Mouse
Yes, River and CinnamonPearl are correct. A vet will prescribe antibiotics, usually Baytril, and you'll need to give them to her for whatever amount of time the vet prescribes. When my mouse had a respiratory infection, she looked like she wasn't going to make it through the night until the vet appointment in the morning, but she hung on and now she's doing fantastic after a course of antibiotics! It's best to take them as soon as you can, because mice can get worse fast. Good luck with your mousies!

Oh. Yeah, no don't do that.
Hey about that! I wasn't planning on taking a baby mouse from it's mommy. I noticed a guy on craigslist was just selling orphaned pinkies to be eaten by snakes, and my heart went out to the wee things. I don't think I am going to adopt one, but if I did, that's where I'd get it from. I get your concern as I also understand that hand raising is an unnecessary and dangerous action if the mother or a surrogate is present.

I gave little un-named mouse a bath with a damp cloth (she had some pee pee on her back from her friends at the pet store and wasn't cleaning it herself after a day
