Looking for a
pocket pet to take home as a pet? Why not try a gerbil. This are little pocket
pets that live anywhere from 2 to 3 years. They are easy to care for and are on
the low expense side. If this sounds like a pet for you, here are a few tips on
how to pick the right one to take home. First, a gerbil should have a neat
appearance, clean nose, clear eyes, and no visible signs of injuries. When
walking, the gerbil should scurry about but should not be limping or tilting to
one side or the other. The fur should be clean, healthy, no bald patches or
irritated spots. The nails should be trimmed and the feet free of sores. Take
note of the gerbil’s habitat. The bedding should be clean, food bowls should be
at least half full and water should be available. Read more here about purchasing a
gerbil or call your veterinary clinic Ellicott City, MD.
