Meet Fent: Our First Ever Mouse for Pet of the Week at Connecticut Humane Society

Meet Fent: Our First Ever Mouse for Pet of the Week at Connecticut Humane Society

Every Thursday Connecticut Humane Society joins the show to tell us about another pet that needs a home.

Say hello to Fent, our very first mouse for Pet of the Week, and she’s bringing the cuteness in a big way! Fent is a 6-month-old white and pink sweetheart who’s as social as she is adorable. Her previous family could no longer care for her, so she’s now waiting for a fresh start at our Westport location. Mice like Fent are naturally curious and love spending time with humans, and sometimes even other mice (once they sniff out a new friend, of course!). She’ll thrive in a large tank filled with safe tunnels, toys, and cozy corners to nibble and explore. With the right care, she could be your pocket-sized bestie for up to 3 years. Think Fent could be the perfect fit for your family? You can fill out an adoption questionnaire online today!
