The mice we keep as pets are the same species as the house mouse. They live alongside human beings nearly all over the world, eating what they can find. Mice are opportunists and great survivors. Sometimes they invade grain stores and live entirely on stored grain or find their way into our store cupboards and larders and eat whatever they find there. Others live in stables or near aviaries, living off the horse feed or bird seed.
