Hamster or Gerbil problem?

Question

have a hamster which i do like , but, i really hate that it isn't active at all in the day...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I first bought it, i actually preferred the idea of getting a gerbil but it didn't happen...I look after it and all that but can't spend any time with it.

So do you think I should give it away to a perfectly fine home and buy a gerbil or two OR keep the hamster...? ]]

Thanks (Please be honest)

Answer 1

Get the gerbils.  They are awake during the day and uber cute.

But to avoid this same disappointment you had with the hamster, consider pet-sitting someone else's gerbils for a while before getting your own. Find out if they are really what you expect in a pet.

Next, the question about the adventure zone:  that's not cheap, so if you want to A) spend the money and B) take that thing apart to clean it--go for it.  Otherwise, stick with the cage-topped aquarium and spend the extra money on all sorts of fun toys and treats. :)
