Five-year old gerbil
Gerbils must be kept in pairs or in a group. Unfortunately, his partner passed away a few months ago after living together for more than four years and a half ๐ข
Gerbilโs lifespan is 3-4 years in captivity. Both gerbils were well-beyond their lifespan, so, we decided not to introduce another gerbil ๐ค
Although he is slower and sleeps longer than before, he still got energy, destroying any paperboard to make his own bedding ๐

Happy New Year from โShio-Jiro and Goma-Taroโ the Gerbils ๐ ใ๏ธ ๐
So round ๐
Gerbils live healthier and longer when they are together ๐
Both are long-living: 4 years and 3 months (estimated) โบ๏ธ

I would add ,for anyone with outdoor pets ,maybe cover #Chicken #smallAnimal hutches and coops with a lightweight blanket and / or a foil emergency blanket to give them a bit of a hand and prevent you having to defrost their coops locks and doors in the morning
