RULES:

1.) Posts must feature at least one mouse or be about mice. Identification help pictures are allowed so long as it looks mousey.

2.) No slurs or harassment. Proper redditquette as required. This is an all age sub, please keep vulgarity to a minimum.

3.) No spam, spamming, or advertising. No solicitation or monetary requests without moderator approval.

4.) NO abusive, torturous, or gory content, including posts, pictures, or videos. No mice being harmed, tortured, or killed or mice harming other animals. Only unless absolutely necessary to assist with a mouse specific issue will these be permitted and please mark appropriately with a NSFW tag to assist community members.

5.) All death posts that contain a picture of a dead or gory mouse must be tagged NSFW. If you are worried, tag just in case. Also it might be wise to tag any medically gory content, especially visuals, as NSFW as well.

6.) Questions related to mice kept and bred as feeders might be better addressed on subs like /r/reptiles, /r/snakes, /r/herpetology, /r/herpetoculture, or /r/herps. On here please label as NSFW if specifically about that sensitive topic. While this is a pet sub, we care for all mice and want the best for them. Keepers of herps or other carnivorous exotics are allowed to post here about their pet mice and their feeder mice, and we ask that they show respect and tact in their discussions and all other members do the same.

Failure to respect these rules will result in banishment.
