I understand that they're very intelligent and the domesticated bred
sorts make excellent pets.  I'd be nervous with cats around it, tho.

Once upon a time, I raised 2 field mice from blind babies to
adult-hood, when I released them.  Enchanting little critters - cute
as the dickens; I can still see those pink eraser rubber noses and
bright shoe-button eyes; was very traumatic to release them, but they
do not make good pets and I had 5 cats at that time.
