I can't not share my happeh news.
My dad finally agreed to let me get pet mice. ^^ So my stepmother took me and my stepsiblings out to the pet store ... and they didn't have mice ... so, we got gerbils instead! =D Two male little baby gerbils, seven weeks old, both agouti-coloured ( brownish-grey with cream tummies ). Boy, do they rawk. They have much personality for little gerbils.
Their names are House and Fox. House after Dr Gregory House in "House MD", and Fox after Fox from "Passions" ( a show I neither like nor watch, but have seen a few episodes because of my sister, and Foxworth is hawtness ^^ ). So yeah. My gerbils pwn.
Oh, and because it's Josh's birthday and I dun have a present, he gets to be my gerbils' godfather, so if I die he has to fly over from Australia and take them home with 'im. =) Happy birthday Joshy. ;3

Gerbils are cute, but oddly enough, illegal here. Go figure. I just got two finches around a week ago. *melts* So adorable.

Gerbils are furry and cute, but I prefer canines.

Awwww! Those are good names for gerbils! One time, these two kids in my class (they're twins) brought in their pet gerbils, Fire and Hurricane, to stay at school. Fire was albino and sometimes bit people, and Hurricane was brown and fuzzy. They were so cute, but one day Fire got some disease and died. For the next day or so, Hurricane was all agitated, running around spastically, not eating, and looking for Fire. Hurricane died eventually. Poor little thing. There, solid proof that gerbils are capable of love.

Rats are like that too. If they live together, and one dies, the surviving rat dies of depression. Sad. And canines are good too. Especially the really big ones. REALLY big ones.

Aw! Gerbils. They used to be illeagle here. I think. My grandmother told me they were anymore *looks around suspiciously*
Last year my science teacher had 2 gerbils that I called 'Fate and Destiny' after the space missions, but she just called them 'gerbil1 and gerbil 2' *rolls eyes*
House and Fox sound cute! I want a gerbil. But I'd get bored with it after about a month. Sad, I know. I did that with my guine pig. Peanutbutter. Short for 'Recess Peanutbutter Cup. He was dark brown with light brown in the middle. Like a cross-section of a peanutbutter cup. ^^

I've had cats since I was six... I'm not so fond of gerbils. But hey, whatever makes you happy, we all have our tastes ^.^ For small, cute pets I like rats, chinchillas and bunnies

Heh. Aside from House and Fox I have Harry and Tigger, my two female guinea pigs who are both four. ( Harry's almost five though; her birthday is May 12th. Tigger's is July 20th. ) They're the friendliest guinea pigs you could hope to find - no exaggeration - especially Harry. She's attention-seeking and will approach any stranger's hand and lick them. ^^ Oh, and Harry can play dead. And Tigger once had an operation. Cool, huh? A pig going under the knife. ^^;
And I have my Border collie, who is now two, and he's nuts, but oh-so-loveable. =3 His name is Tip.
And yeah, House and Fox are adorable. ^^ We can't pick them up yet, but we're supposed to let them get used to our hands. Already House has nibbled on my fingers, to see if I'm edible, and sat on my hand. I lifted him a few inches from the ground, then put him back down, and he was a good boy and sat still while I did. I call House my kindred spirit. Fox is growing more trusting of us, too. =) Gerbils rule.
( Never saw myself as a gerbil-owner before, though ... they never appealed to me before now. ^^; Go figure. )

WOO gerbils! They sound uber-cute. ^-^ I have a rat called Tara, who I love to pieces. She's so cute because she sits on my shoulder (whilst Rint sits on my head) and sometimes just gives my neck a little lick for no reason. It's so adorable. I also have cats and rabbits. My sister has 2 hamsters. My cat, Derek (female X-x) is cute aswell. Very affectionate. But most cats are, aren't they?
