does anyone know anything about pinworm in pet mice?
I have two pet mice that I bought fairly recently. Ever since I've had them there has been a problem with them sneezing, one more so than the other and they both have loose stools.

Vets in Docklands..
I'm getting a new cat on Saturday :) I would like to find a vet in the Docklands but have no idea where to start!

Thanks!
