I'm not so sure about the rabbit part (I've never bred rabbits) but rabbits (not wild rabbits) tend to get along with cats fairly well. Haha my rabbit is actually kind of an a**hole to my cats. He likes chasing them. Or going for their faces. Actually before he got fixed.... he reeallllly like my cats if you get my drift. Anyway I'm off topic.

I don't think I could breed rats for my guys... I can barely take the smell when I heat them up for their dinner... Not to mention I'd have to kill them... I seem to have a problem killing anything...

When my youngest gained some sort of understanding of live she started to cry when I feed my snakes telling that I'm doing "very ugly things". She's still running to mommy when I feed the snakes with tears in her eyes...

So cute but she hates me when I feed the carnivores in the house. We already have a bunch of Dubia roaches with names that I'm not allowed to feed to the gecko's and they play with them when they are running up and down their arms.

The challenges of kids, and the ever expanding group of permanent residents in the house from all animal orders...

Update: I was able to feed the babies to my snakes. There was four babies in total, and the snakes certainly appreciated the live treat. Their feeding responses were never so voracious! It was really interesting to see them eat with such enthusiasm.

The 1st page of this thread, 3rd post, has an uploaded photo of your mouse that was pregnant.

Only 4 babies out of her? I'd have thought at least twice that.
