Our apartment seems to have become the critter apartment with 3 ferrets, 6 rats, a tarantula and soon a sugar glider. So when a friend of ours asked if we wanted to take in a mouse it was no problem. I am wondering if the rats and the mouse can be kept together or if we need to get the mouse a seperate cage.

Rats are much larger then mice. I would think the rat would kill the mouse.

What a coincidence Rachel, it truly is something i have also mused over No rats and mice can not be interior a similar cage jointly because they're 2 diverse animals. Rats have ailment of their feces that ought to kill the mouse or get the mouse i'm hoping this solutions your question.

No. The rats would kill the mouse in a second. The mouse has to be housed separately.

You seem to love pet, Me too I love pet!
Its not good to mix them together cause rats are bigger and meaner and might kill the mouse.
You should a new home for your mouse.

Unfortunately, no.
Even introducing another rat to a rat's cage often ends in tragedy.
