Crittery is a exotic pet resource website providing information on common and exotic rodents and small mammals such as African Pygmy Mice, African Pygmy Dormice, Fancy Mice, Harvest Mice, Mongolian Gerbils, Mouselike Hamsters, Southern Flying Squirrels, Steppe Lemmings, Sugar Gliders, Hedgehogs, Tenrecs and Zebra Mice amongst many others. For more information see the Species List.
Crittery can take in exotic rescues where we have space. Any animal that does not find a responsible, vetted home just stays with Crittery for the rest of its life. If you are new to a species please do not let it put you off enquiring; we are here to offer advice and support on these animals as well as give you plenty of resources to continue your research.
Articles on care, natural enrichment, environment and illness as well as issues such as split-caging gerbils and introducing new mice.
Our media section includes articles, videos and the new Rodentpedia - a searchable FAQ! We are looking for new authors to write articles on a range of subjects, or help contribute to expanding the Rodentpedia knowledge base.
