Understanding gerbils behaviours
Unlike hamsters, who perk up when the lights go down, gerbils are active throughout the day. Just like you! And when we say active, they’re very, very fast. So when you’re handling your pets, always make sure it’s in a safe contained area.
Gerbils have a natural digging instinct – they just love to dig! Because of this, the best housing is a gerbilarium. This is a wire cage on top of a tank filled with natural wood shavings which takes account of your gerbil’s natural instinct for burrowing. It’s very digging-friendly!
