Life, Love, Dicks
Jun 28, 2006

Evidently Dick was not an easy person to love but those that cared for him recognized his profound importance...
I'm glad this thread is here, because I've got a mouse problem!

I recently left my mouse, Moonsnazzle, at home for about a month while I was away. My roommate took good care of him, and he had lots of fresh water, food, and bedding. The problem, though, is that he didn't get much quality time with people during that month. He used to be my best buddy and would come right up and climb in my hand. As a consolation gift for being gone, I got him a new cage with a lot more space and some fun things to play in. He seems to really love his cage, but whenever I try to approach him, he gives my finger a tiny warning nip. He hasn't ever full-on bit me, but he's definitely telling me to go away!

My questions:
- Was it a bad idea to move him into a new cage right after I reintroduced myself?
- Should I keep trying to spend more time with him, or should I give him more time alone in the cage before trying to play with him again?
