i really want 2 gerbils but my parents said if we get a pet it would be a dog. What should i do?
Answers:
Well, calmly present your case to your parents. Maybe they will let you have the gerbils if you keep them in your room and do ALL of the research that you can on them, this would show that you have enough responsibility to take care of them and then POSSIBLY, they can have the dog and you can have the gerbils.
Good luck...can YOU pay for the gerbils, cage, food, bedding and everything?
Try explaining why you think gerbils will be a better pet for YOU.
Explain calmly to your parents that gerbils stay in there cage and dont requie alot of work or responsibility. But also let them know that there will be enough responsibility involved that you will have to take care of them.
save up your money and say this is my money and i am buying to gerbils they will say if its your money ok
Tell your parents the dog could be a family pet, while the gerbils would be YOUR responsiblity, and your responsiblity ONLY. Dogs are WAY better pets than gerbils. I owned 2 gerbils, and I can tell you what they do. Chew,sleep,eat,drink,and bug the heck out of you at 2:00AM.
I would get the dog gerbils can bite and be very aggressive depending on the temperment. I had a gerbil once and it was ok for awhile but it became very aggressive and everytime I tried to feed him or clean the cage he would bite. I unfortunetly had to give him away because he bit my younger sister and that was that.
we got a german shepard instead he was the best pet ever.
i assume if your on here your old enough to take care of the gerbils yourself. talk to their logic of care- that gerbils make less mess and are cheaper..(as long as you dont have babies from them)
gerbills are verty dirty nd smelly believe me they smell really bad
wen u hav a dog u cn play wit it walk it hav fun wit d gerbills well u cant do anythin wit them only feed nd clean out bt then again dogs ive longer bt is a big responally 2 hav a dog
if you live in C.A. then it's illegal to have gerbils.
tell them dogs thierselves are WAY more expensive than buying 2 gerbils and everything they need. (you should get 2 gerbils because if you have only one they get depressed and angry for some reason) i only had one gerbil and it did the same thing so i bought another one...but what i told you should help..
Try to tell them that gerbils are easier to take care of u don't have to take them on walks every day, u can leave them home when u go on vaca. as long u give them food and u can keep them in thier cages when u don't want to play w/ them
