The East African Pouched Mouse is omnivorous, switching from green plant matter during the dry season to seeds after rains. In laboratory tests, individuals prefer forbs more than seeds.

|

The East African Pouched Mouse is solitary. In central Kenya, densities fluctuate from 16 ind/ha to 42 ind/ha throughout the year. Interannual variation may be even larger. In the absence of mammalian predators, densities can reach more than 80 ind/ha. Females appear to be territorial. Males are randomly distributed, with larger home ranges (0-21 ha) than females (0-06 ha).
