I really love them and my mom says that if they dont start to smell better I'm going to have to get rid of them

Definitely don't try anything like kitty litter again.





What type of cage do you have?


How large is it?


How often do you clean it?





~The crittertrail type cages that are made of plastic trap odors in, making them seem a lot worse. Mice should be kept in well ventilated wire cages.





~A larger cage would give the mice more space, and take them longer to stink it up.





~Clean the cage every three days.How to get mice to stop stinking?
Maybe they are in heat, buy a male mouse and that might take care of it. You can donate the babies to most pet stores. Other than that if your keeping at cage clean there's not much else you can do. Are you giving them enough to drink that can make the urine stronger if your not because that is what your smelling either that or a discharge from an infection.
well. there is a spray that you can buy at a petstore for mice and hamsters. Its like a spray shampoo. you spray it on their fur and then scrub it in. once it dries. itll be good.
don't use kitty litter. maybe use the lavender scent bedding it's safe
