Has anyone saved a harvest mouse?

@chickentrains why would you "never give any animal cow milk"?

Most animals cannot have lactose.

It will kill most animals.

also not the right nutrients, and evidently, most animals are lactose intolerant, like I said.

A mouse would die if it was being fed only cows milk.

I give cow milk to every animal that I've had (ducks,chickens,dogs,puppies,cats,kittens) and it has never done them any harm.

Maybe I'm wrong and just really lucky none of my animals have die

I've also given milk to mice

You're very lucky none of your animals have had any complications. All of the animals listed are lactose intolerant. At the minimum you made them very uncomfortable.

Humans are the only animal for the most part that has developed the enzymes to drink other mammals milk.

My animals drink milk about once a day. I have never had any issues with any of them, they never act uncomfortable. They have always gotten clean bills of health from my vet, with the dogs and cats my vet said it's fine for me to give them milk daily. I only give them raw milk though.

Ican only imagine that's a joke!

No, they were on the list to tag for small animals like mice. I wouldn't tag them otherwise.

I'd find a better vet that isn't interested in only taking your money.
