wtf is up with this mouse?!?!

I just bought a mouse today, he is a male and he is albino as usual, I am going to use him as a breeding mouse to my other three females. well anyways when I was taking him home I took a look in the box to see how he was doing, he jumped on my shoulder, not climbing at all just one huge jump. then he jumped on the dashboard of the car, then jumped on the driving wheel, then on the gas petal that drived my mom crazy so she pulled over in the walmart parking lot. he went up in the raido thingy, then I pulled him out by his tail (which I hate doing..). then he jumped out the door and ran in the parking lot. my sisters, my mom and I where chasing him for about 10 min, the we grabbed him a couple of times and he got away. then I got the tip of his tail and we got him, then he bit me. owwie is there something wrong with him? does he have like I don’t know part wild mouse in him? do you think he got hurt? ( he shows no sign of ingurey at all) is he just skiddish? its just weird…

Answer #1

lol yea, well actully it was 4 ladies, lol

Answer #2

well think of it like this- he got placed into a box, and then into a car, while the car is in motion- he saw a means of escape and took it- and found himself in an unfamiliar environment, if I was him I would freak out.

now that he is at your home he should be fine. that must have been a sight to see- a bunch of females chasing a mouse through a parking lot.

Answer #3

yes, so he must have been truly frightened.

he should get accustomed to his surroundings, and be fine especially when he meets the 3 special ladies you intend to introduce him to.

Answer #4

Poor guy. I think all of the advice from above is on target.

I think he was frightened and became as frightened as the rest of you as things got out of control and is lucky you caught him before he did any thing really rash, like making a dash for a sewer.

So now that lucky mouse lives in a nice home with a much of ladies both two legged and four ;)
