About Velvet
Meet Velvet, a sweet mouse who is looking for love. This lovely boy is always seen racing about, resting in his hammock, building cozy nests, and digging tunnels. With a soft chocolate coat, Velvet is undeniably pretty.
Velvet is looking for a home where he'll be spoilt with toys and treats. Like most mice, Velvet isn't looking for a cuddle. The enjoyment of caring for Velvet will come in watching his personality blossom with your respect and patience, and seeing how much he loves to explore new enclosure set ups.
To someone so tiny, children can be unintentionally frightening. For this reason, Velvet is better suited to a home with teenagers or adults only. If you have cat or dog family members, put thought into how you'll keep them safely away from his cage. As he is an entire male, Velvet must be housed alone.
Can you offer Velvet a safe, engaging home for the rest of his life (1-1.5 years)? If so, send us an enquiry and we'll get back to you as soon as possible to make his dreams come true!
Velvet will be treated with a parasite preventative prior to adoption. For an additional fee, we can provide his adopter with a suitable cage.
Medical notes
No known pre-existing conditions.
Adoption details
All of our animals are seeking indoor only homes. We do not adopt out any animal to live alone (excluding entire male mice). If you do not have one or more compatible animals of the same species, you must adopt a bonded pair or group.
Once you apply to adopt, we'll talk with you about proper care of the animals you're looking to adopt, discuss any concerns you or we might have, and tell you more about our available animals. To speed up the process, please include as much detail as possible about your situation, other animals, experience with the species you're looking to adopt, and intended housing/diet when you apply. If there's a particular vet clinic you intend to use, please tell us the name (otherwise we can help you locate one that is knowledgable in small animals).
As part of the adoption process we require photos of a complete, suitable set up. We can provide care advice, and suggest contacting us prior to buying any cages or items for your new family members as many sold for small animals are not appropriate. We've also outlined our housing expectations on our social media, but don't be intimidated! We are here to help, not judge.
At the time of adoption, you'll be asked to pay an adoption fee and sign an adoption form. You'll receive an adoption packet including a detailed care guide for the species you've adopted, an adoption certificate, and any relevant veterinary records (proof of vaccination and sterilisation, microchip details, etc).
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
