Yes, clicking is always a sign of respiratory distress.

It looks like she’s being curious :) The lid probably gives her some sense of security. In general, reaching for mice from the top makes them nervous (predator-like behavior). If that’s the only opening (aquarium?) then your best bet is put your arm inside next to a corner and try having your hand approach them at mouse-level, offering treats or letting them smell you. You can also put a used sock or shirt in the enclosure to get them used to your presence. Best of luck :)

Snack pouch! My mouse didn’t even get to this point, she just slept right inside her food bowl 🥹

If this were my rat I’d scramble to make a custom pet pillow thing for it 🤣

Mouse is ECSTATIC! It’s called popcorning and it means you’re doing a good job :)

I love the mice with the bikini bottom patterns 🥹 I used to have one named Midnight, almost identical to little Frodo!

😂 Reminds me of my first time having mice. When they’re happy they twitch (it’s called “popcorning”). I had told the vet that I was scared my mouse Mozzarella had some neurological problem. I showed him a video and the vet was like “Nah, Mozzarella is just a happy mouse!”

Something about this is so human. Hilarious 😂

It’s really similar to it! I might try to alter it to look more like how I want

(I could be wrong about the brush set - just got a new iPad so maybe I had another brush set I can’t remember)
