> communications, she has separated mom and babies from
> the other female.
>
> She initially purchased her gerbs as a school project,
> though she intended to keep them. However, she was
> going to send the pupless female back to the pet
> store. Her own conscience and my suggestions led her
> to decide not to do this, however she does not wish to
> keep this gerbil. She has requested that I contact
> the gerbil community and attempt to place the animal.
>
> Is there anyone who would be interested in providing a
> home for this animal? She is a special case, and from
> the young lady's description, was likely an abused
> animal. I will be getting further details on this
> gerbil soon. It is possible that the current owner
> can subsidize the shipping costs if necessary.
>
> Please contact me privately if you think you might be
> able to help.

Where in the U.S.? E-mail me more details and I'll start up
a rescue page this weekend. Also some of you, Eva I think
was one, gave me shelter sites for me to link to but I can't
find them. I'm a bit of an airhead lately!
