My two gerbils.

[Catherine]

I am glad to hear that your local pet store has an adoption scheme. It gives unwanted pets a chance at a good home.

Your boys are beautiful. I have heard that gerbils like company. I am glad you found two boys that get along. You must have introduced them just right. In the picture they look very close to each other.

You have a really good cage for them. Interesting about the names. I don't like to change names either. If I can keep an adopted pet's name I do. Brownie is a good adaption of Mr. Brown. Parker is a good choice for a gerbil. They can climb right up the walls of their cages.

I can see why they are good company. Gerbils are perky active little guys. They seem to be always busy and up to something. They must keep you constantly entertained.
