Answer 1

No you should not get a gerbil. You are in doubt and do not know as much as you should just yet. A truley prepared pet owner knows everything already, and has made the decision thoughtfully, without any doubt. So do some more research and consider it later on.

There is no such thing as a good pet. Every person has their own idea of whta a good pet is. I for example love big dogs and think they are perfect pets, but many people hate all the work involved and think they are awful pets. What are you looking for in a pet? Gerbils are pretty easy to keep, all they really need is weekly cleaning, and daily water and food changes. You also must take them out regularly so they are kept docile. They are pretty timid and easily excitable.

Go to a shelter, and SAVE some gerbils. Avoid pet stores as they are always in bad health. Not necessarily sick, but are poorly bred. A shelter will be very cheap. For a cage, you need a tank with a cage topper, which might be around $30. Then you need bedding (not cedar or pine), food (pellets, no seeds!), water bottle, dish, several hiding places, and wheel. Go into your pet store, and look at the prices yourself. Prices differ place to place.

Another thing, they are social, and you will be neglecting its needs by having a single one. Get at least two or more, same sexed, siblings.
