Is my mouse sick?
by jlk5262 Sun 16 Dec 2018, 10:50 am
For the past couple of weeks, one of my mice has changed her behavior slightly. She seems to breathe faster and she sits still and slightly hunched a lot of the time. She hasn't sneezed or made any sounds typical of a URI, so I'm baffled right now. Her condition hasn't gotten worse either. I'm wondering if I should be worried about her change in behavior or maybe it's a passing thing due to colder weather. I posted a video so you can see how fast she's breathing. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not an expert in the least, but behavior changes are common among all sorts of animals when it gets colder. The amount they eat, how they stand or sit or snuggle up to sleep, and how active they are.

She could just be cold from the weather, try to keep her warm maybe wrap a blanket around the sides of her cage and give her more bedding. If it is a UI then she might need frequent cage cleanings and I usually use oregano to sprinkle in the cage.
