Enrichment
Mice need various forms of enriching entertainment in their tank to keep them active. There are many options to choose from. Exercise wheels are the most known source of exercise options. Mice also enjoy burrowing, which can be recreated by giving them toilet paper tubes to tunnel in. Climbing is very enriching for mice and can be created with ladders, ropes, & hammocks. Smaller toys for chewing, pushing, or carrying also provide great entertainment for mice.
