Jarhead sad

I am typing this on behalf of my degu Jarhead. We had 2 degus 118 and 117 for 7 years. Then we lost 118 as he was old and ill and the vets couldn't help. 1 months later Jarhead was found in the streets and brought to the vets. They contacted us and after many weeks dettled down happily with 117. Jarhead adored him utterly.
Saturday 117 died in his sleep. Jarhead was in a pannic. Since then he is so upset calling for him and winning to break your heart. Please can you help. We are looking for rescue degus but no joy.

Please help

I live in Wolverhampton. West Midlands

Where abouts are you?
People may be able to help if they know your location.
There is a lone degu in a rescue close to me at the mo.

Sorry for the loss of your 2 degus. Sleep tight little ones x

Thanks.

Re: Jarhead happy

We have a new girl born January. From a mad house full of degus. There are pictures. She hid for a day and a half. Jarhead thought he saw her when we put the cages together.

We spent all day with her she eventually started to get over her fears. we let her out she loved the hazelnut. Then we let Jarhead out he thought the place smell funny of new degu.
He saw her today and was very excited and tried to chew his way out. they both showed off their climbing . No aggression. Fingers crossed.

Re: Jarhead sad

Why are you introducing a female to a male?
Please don't tell me you want to breed them, especially as you have no idea what their backgrounds are.
