And you know full well that's something you'd do ;-p
You're clearly jealous of my obvious level of special.
And yes, that would be Hamster!Marie indeed.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
I kept gerbils for years - they gnaw everything & anything and v v quickly. Plastic, wood, cardboard all fine - they're not eating it, just chewing it to bits - it will build up in the cage & they may use it for bedding. I used to chuck loads of loo rolls in, along with tougher cardboard tubes & chunky sticks. Its good for them - keeps them occupied & keeps their teeth down. Bad things to chew = electrical wires! so check when they're running around freeee!
(other ple have prob answered you but i can't be a*sed to read all comments!)
My gerbils eat everrything they can lay their grubby little paws on. To combat this I have bought them salt licks, wooden tunnel things, a coconut house, gnaw sticks, and give them many toilet rolls. They still continue to gnaw up the cage and stuff...
I used to have a plastic bridge, they ate that and so I had to give them a wooden one which they haven't eaten yet.
Gerbils are like any rodent though, their incisors never stop growing so they have to chew things or else they wouldn't be able to eat anything. (One of nature's flaws much?)
I don't know why I am writing a load of pointless crap but have fun reading it all.
I really don't understand why one of my gerbils is fat though. I think Vlad just eats more than Bram. Hmm...
The world is just illusion always trying to change me.
You will find wonder wherever you can, and spread joy whenever you are able.
I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, divide within me. - Frankenstein.
And thank you everyone for your advice, it's really helped, and I'm reassured that my gerbils are vaguely normal. I'll hunt out lots more things for them to chew!
Our gerbils absolute favourite nom was my mums foot. No idea why. I would recommend you therefore do not offer them any feet just in case

Some of life's mysteries will never be solved, such as why, after spending an entire evening listenong to Bach, do I find myself humming "the birdie song".......
I am reaching, but i fall, and the stars are black and cold, as i stare into the void of a world that cannot hold- les miserables
Oh, Jenna, you mysterious muffin, you.
You had me guessing for a second then.
Just for a second, mind you.

One of the biggest lessons I learned in owning gerbils/hamsters is to never bother with the fancy colourful, plastic stuff. They either nom it away or it breaks. Shredded paper and cardboard ftw!
Do not be dismayed by the brokenness of the world. All things can be mended. Not with time, as they say, but with intention. So go. Love intentionally, extravagantly, unconditionally. The broken world awaits in darkness for the light that is you.
I used to have a ferret called Draco, he liked to eat things too. I believe your problem is you called him Draco. All pets called Draco, as I met another ferret called Draco, eat everything.
