Help!! (please read!)

You take all of your information from one book rather than doing a lot of research from various books as well as people with gerbil experience?

I can find a book that tells you hot rocks are safe to use in reptile enclosures. It doesn't make it true.

That's why you get a heavy bowl that they can't tip over. And FTR don't belive everything your pet stores tell you they usually know nothing about animals.

Well my pet shop does! They are a family run pet shop and they are very good with animals. They give everyone advise. They know ALOT about animals, and the woman whho works there has had rodents for years- I trust them.

Something is not ringing true about this thread. Reggie, you said first that a friend gave you $10 for a new water bottle and then you said you found $10. I hope this isn't an attention getting thread because there are several people here who earnestly have tried to offer help. I have never had gerbils but I have used a heavy weighted bowl for my guinea pigs in the past. Duct tape would have certainly been a good fix temporarily. I have used it for many things. My goodness, half the world is held together with duct tape.

And he made a thread saying his gerbil was turning 4 then turned around in another thread saying he was 1.5 years. Something fishy?

I agree your going to go by what ONE book says..my rabbits bookS all say things that aren't true and lack in alot of information. I think your best bet is going by what people who have experience tell you.

I was sleepy when i posted that threa. And in my world *borrowing* is also considered *finding*

I know this has nothing to do with anything, bot OOC how old are you Reggie?

And while we're off topic...are you a boy or a girl?



Not that it has anything to do with anything, just thought I'd ask.

How can borrowing be the same as finding? They mean 2 completly different things.


You should of had a spare anyway, I dont even own a gerbil and I know how much they chew and using a heavy bowl wouldn't be a problem so stop trying to make it one. Its a simple solution why post ranting about a bowl when you have supposidly already gone and brought another bottle?

maybe it was borrowing from the world.......LOL.........

just an observation......... since a gerbil is from the desert and it can go without water for days..... does that mean that I and people living in desertic areas can go without water too?.........

comparing things as you just said...... where can a gerbil drink water from?..... puddles and such places so why can he not drink from a bowl.....better drink from dirty water than no water at all........besides you ARE going to change the water when you see it dirty aren´t you??
