Hi there! I'm Kat, but online I go by Banilya. I'm fairly new to mice, just got my first ones back in the middle of December last year. As a kid I've wanted hamsters because of watching Hamtaro but I felt very drawn to mice after looking up different choices for a small pet to have. They're my very first mammals to have as pets; I've always had fish! Mice have become my favorite animal and I'm glad to be on this forum with fellow mice owners and enthusiasts!

Here are my mice! 3 of them, Ruby, Maisy, and Sesame

Ruby & Maisy
Adopted Dec 17, 2020
My very first mice! Got them from Petco. Maisy is the alpha between them and loves to run on the saucer. She's pretty chill but assertive. Ruby is very active and quite the rascal. She was always looking for ways to escape, and kept me up several nights trying to get her to calm down and get her back in the cage. She loves a good grooming session.

(By the way, they now live in a 50 gal bin. I just kept their old cage inside the bin to repurpose as their nesting area)

Sesame
Adopted Jan 9, 2021
My third mouse. Found her all by herself in Petsmart. She's very small and fast! I thought she was still a growing baby but she's really small compared to Ruby and Maisy at ~2.5 inches. At this time of me writing she's still afraid of me but I adore her and love seeing her be adventurous around her bin
