Why do you want to adopt pet mice?  *
Do you currently own any mice? *
Have you owned mice in the past? *
What animals do you currently own? *
How many mice are you looking to adopt? What sex? Do you have any preferences on variety?  *
Female mice are only adopted in pairs at a minimum, male mice can be adopted solo. We will not adopt out any female mice individually. 

Do you understand:
*
If you currently own rodents of any kind, it's important that you quarantine your new mice for a minimum of 2-3 weeks. Completely separate air space is best, but at a minimum keep them in a separate room.

Do you understand?

Do you smoke/vape in your home? *
Has anyone in your home been convicted of animal cruelty, abuse, neglect or hoarding? If so, what were the circumstances and what has been done to rectify the situation? 
What type of enclosure do you have or are planning to get for your new mice? Please keep in mind that mice are bottom of the food chain prey animals that prefer small well cluttered spaces. The rule is 50-100sqin per mouse. For example, a 10gal tank can hold 1-4 mice, a 20gal long tank 3-7 and a 40gal tank 7-14 mice. 

Too large of an enclosure without the right number of friends can cause a host of fear/stress behaviors in mice...things such as excessive hiding, overgrooming/barbering, self-harm and/or aggression towards one another and towards you. We do not want our beloved babies living in a constant state of fear/stress so will not adopt to those wishing to use too large of enclosures for too few mice. 
*
What type of bedding will you be using? Paper bedding has been scientifically proven to not absorb the ammonia from their urine and is not an appropriate bedding. This can lead to numerous URIs in your pet rodents.  *
What food are you planning to feed your mice? We recommend Science Select Rat & Mouse, Mazuri Rat & Mouse and Oxbow Essentials Adult Rat as your primary diet. For breeders Mazuri 6F and Kalmbach Rodent Feed are great options! 

Mice should not be eating a seed mix as their primary diet as they will selectively eat it and will not get all the nutrients they require. A good lab blook like those mentioned above will provide all their needed nutrients. 
*
Do you have an exotics vet? *
Do you rent or own your home? If you rent do you have permission from your landlord to have rodents on the premise? If you are unsure we highly recommend you check with them first. 

If you rent, please provide your landlords name and contact information: 
*
Do small children reside in your home? If so, what are their ages:  *
Have you read our care information page on our website? *
What is the minimum sized upright wheel recommended for mice? (Answer is on our care info page of our website) *
We require a 50% non-refundable deposit within 24 hours of selecting which mice you want. The only times the deposit is refundable are if the issue is entirely on our end OR you are using a small animal transport that cancels their route and there is no other transport option. We currently accept PayPal (F&F), Venmo (F&F), CashApp and Zelle.

 Do you understand?
*
Which best describes you?  *
Are you using a small animal transport? If so, which one? We highly recommend Hippity Hop Express! We are happy to work with any transport service with good reviews.  *
We offer transport within a 2-hour radius of Ringgold, GA for $0.45/mile round trip (rounded). If we have to drive to meet a transport outside of our area there will be a transport fee on our end as well. Availability of transport by us is dependent upon our ability to make the trip. Please feel free to reach out with any additional questions!   Do you require transport by Mystique Menagerie? *
Our local pick-up locations that do not incur a transport fee are: 

CVS (4825 Battlefield Parkway, Ringgold GA)
Wendy's (6727 Ringgold Road, Chattanooga TN)

Which location would your prefer? 
*
We will only wait 15 minutes past the prearranged pick-up time. If you are later then 15 minutes the adoption must be rescheduled. If you are coming a long way, please plan accordingly. If you have a 2-hour drive, add in 20-30 minutes for any delays on the road. We are located in the eastern time zone; all pick up times will be eastern time. 

If late to a second pick up the adoption is considered canceled, and your deposit is forfeit. The mouse/mice will be made available to the public again. The same will hold true for any no call/no shows unless there is an emergency situation. 

Do you understand?

All mice must be picked up within 14 days of the deposit being paid unless the issue is on our end. After 14 days there will be a $2/mouse per day fee for boarding.   For those using a third-party transport service we ask that rodents are not reserved any earlier then 1 month out. Male mice are subject to our current available space for individual enclosures.   Do you understand? *
All our rodents are offered to our private waitlist Facebook group first. They get 24 hour priority access to all our newly available rodents. If your application is approved would you like to join? *
