Gerbils are great! But mine are nutter for chewing things. Gerbils can be UBER destructive, so be sure and provide them with lots of things to chew on. Mine have almost chewed themselves -free- of their cage, and..ignore everything I give them to chew on. x.x
Gerbils are super duper sweet, though. I got mine from Petsmart and for all the almost two years I've had them, they have -never- bitten me. Be careful never ever to pick them up by the tail...the skin can strip off the bones like nothing. I's not had that happened, but the lady I got mine from warned me about it. Mine are going grey with age, but I love them. <3 Congrats. ^^ They can be a lot of fun.
