Aawww that pic is adorable.
If I had a big enough tank I would have offered them all a home as I love gerbils.

I think alot of gerbils end up in rescues for ages, I have no idea why as they're so sweet.
My local rspca had a group of 4 and they didn't get a home ever
Now they have 2 more and I asked about them and the guy fostering them told me he doubts they'll get homes either.

More people need gerbils in their life.....they are awesome

I totally agree on all counts

Its a shame they don't get rehomed. These girls will run all over my hand when I go in the cage, they aren't afraid, very curious...much more so then our own mice actually. its a curiousity in people I haven't seen other then in rats. They *want* your attention. Its great!

Well I am more then happy for them to stay here even if its forever but its a shame if they don't get a home that can give them 150% attention.

The girls sit in their bath when its empty, food bowl or water bottle and eep at me to fill them up. They eep when they are out of cardboard and eep when they want to come out, one rests her head on the door catch while she eeps....biggest sad face ever lol

Just to illustrate, their new ceramic dust bath went in today and they got in it before I put it in the cage! They then jumped out spraying my face with dust while I was trying to fit it through the cage door lol Thanks girls x

These girls have been split into two pairs looking for homes seperately.

No interest in them at all
