Lonely senior gerbil swarmed by babies

This senior gerbil was surrendered by his family after his friend passed. It is not good for gerbils to be alone. Some males instinctively love gerbil babies, called pups. So wearing a glove just in case, I tried introducing them...

You can find this senior boy and other gerbils available for adoption for pet or show homes on the ABC Gerbils Facebook page. I live in the New England area and travel the country supporting gerbil and small animal shows, pet expos, and educational events.
