its hard when you first start. I had a baptism of fire when i first started culling.
I was working for the RSPCA, i was only 17. Inspectors had gone into an abondoned pet shop. Their had been complaints from the neighbours of the smell. All the cages had been left open and the mice and rats had just been breeding like mad.
We took 400 mice and had to euthanase about 200.
I have to admit, you never truly switch off from doing it, but it becomes less traumatic.
you've done the best for your mice
