One of our gerbils has sadly just died, leaving DGerbil on her own. She is 2 1/2 years old. I know it is not ideal for a gerbil to live alone, so need to decide from the following options:
A) Get another single gerbil and try and integrate them. If it is a young one (which would probably be the case) then DGerbil would in all likelihood die first and then I will be faced with the same problem again.
B) Get 2 more gerbils and try and integrate them so they can live together. If they were young, would this work? Or would the younger ones bully her, as she is quite elderly.
C) Let DGerbil live alone and give her as much attention and time out of the cage as possible.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
