RIP two gerbils

(1/3) > >>

discomummy:
Hi,

came back off holiday a week ago to discover one of the gerbils had died whilst we were away, not a bad innings 2 years 9 months, and had to take the other one to the vet yesterday to have it put down as it was pining so much it developed various nasty infections and gave up on eating - she would not even eat her chocolate drops!

now have two devastated children
 :cry:

only plus side is that i have organised 2 furry companions of the feline persuasion for their birthday next week -  i was a bit worried about the gerbs, however our previous feline was actually scared of them!

did try to get them early but the lady i am getting them from has just had her baby 4 weeks early and for some reason is a bit busy :lol:

will post piccies of the monsters with their new monsters once we get them - the breed we are going for is ragdolls.  i had put some money away from mum's estate specifically to buy two pedigrees - i know it is something my mum would have approved of.

regards

ela

pet rats are ace i used to have 1, it nibbled my finger nails, so i never had to cut them myself, never chewed my skin though lol :D

when you go and buy 1 though, put you hand in the cage, this will then determine the most friendly :D

SWEETY:
My son had a rat & I could'nt get away with it :roll: it alawys tried to take a lump out of me :twisted: My wife had mice ( in a cage) they were great little things, used to put the male in his ball when I cleaned him out. Used to put him in the sitting roon & next thing you knew he was back in the kitched teasing the 3 jack russell's by raming them with his ball :lol:  :lol: Head dog thought it was great mouse & ball at the same time yummy :lol:  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
