Gerbil Fluff


  Hi! Today I will tell you about gerbil fluff. You know when gerbils chew cardboard, they leave little shreds behind? That is gerbil fluff. It looks like this.





Gerbils love to sleep in gerbil fluff. They love to burrow in it too. Gerbils make beds in gerbil fluff. Here is a picture of  Obi and Chunky in it.




         But sometimes fluff isn't so good. If you have a metal bar cage, like in the picture below, the fluff will get everywhere.




Here is how to fix the problem. Simply get some duct tape, and put it on the bars, like seen below.



        It may look weird, but it works!

Cardboard Boxes!

       So, you probably know this already, but gerbils just LOVE to chew cardboard boxes!
  This is what I did with a pasta box.














          This is how I did it:



           1. Remove the plastic film.
           2. Make the hole a little bit bigger.
           3. Rip the tabs off the top. ( you can put the tabs in the cage.)
           4. Cut a hole in the side.
           5. Make the hole bigger. ( so the gerbil(s) can poke their little heads out!)
           6. Put the box in the cage and watch the gerbil(s) have fun!
