ANSWER: I'm sorry you had a visiting wild boy. To make sure this doesn't happen again you should get a humane mouse trap (looks like a mini cat trap) and release him at least 2 miles from your home. You may not be able to catch him (sounds like hes very fond of your girl) so you may need to change her cage (i.e a glass tank style rather than bars) and move it to a different location such as your bedrrom. This is important because you don't want her to become pregnant again after giving birth.

Your mouse wasn't mad at you, I promise! She was annoyed at her frequent visitor who comes in when he likes and has his way with her. Mice come into heat every 3 or 4 days so if she probably wasn't in the mood (hence a bit annoyed).

I hope you manage to catch him. Please feel free to ask any more questions.

thank you, jessie

p.s we never had any mice before in are home exept to wich my daddy caught without me knowing. i think they are eating the my mice feed because they are nibbled and chewwed on.  

Answer
I think your mouse is attracting some unwanted visitors! Place humane mouse traps in the areas where you have seen them. Use smelly foods such as strong cheese and meat to attract them.

You need to be super careful about leaving food around in your home as this will attract them more. Keep any food (especially the mouse food) in plastic or metal containers.

If there is an area of your home where there are very few nooks and crannies such as a small bathroom you could leave the cage in there for the meantime. You could also place the cage in a plastic box (a toy box is ideal). That way it will be a lot more difficult for the wild mice to get in. If they do, it will make it tricky for them to escape!

Please feel free to ask any more questions, good luck.
