spiny mouse


Hi !

I just came to London for work and would be really grateful if somebody could tell me where I can get so called spiny mouse. Either to buy or to adopt young animal. Unfortunately I did not find any in the pets stores.

Thank you indeed.

I'm not sure since I'm in the US but make sure you don't just get one...try to get a same-sex pair if possible.

I wouldn't go to a pet store anyways...a lot of pet store spinies tend to have behavioral problems in my experience.

Hopefully someone can help you out.

thanks.

I will try to follow your advice. I would definitely prefer to take a young animal(s) from somebody who breeds them.

Well I did a search for you.

I didn't find much,but you can check out this link.Maybe you can find something here or post an ad saying you want spiny mice.
http://www.preloved.co.uk/fuseaction.../e6081782.html

http://www.altpet.net/rodents/UK.shtml

Thats all I could find.So you can have a look and maybe even if you emailed another breeder,they may be able to help you find a spiny mouse breeder.
