Dimon
I got Dimon orignially for a science experiment. ( A test to see who was smarter. Timed a mouse, hamster, rat, and gerbil going through a maze ) She was the first gerbil I ever owned. I named her Dimon because that's how I thought Diamond was spelled back then, and I just kept it that way. I had her for about 6 years before her demise. She got very fat near the end, though I only feed her a small portion once a day. If this isn't normal someone please tell me.
RIP
Mckiey
I found Mckiey at McDonald's she appeared to have been abandoned there. She was cowering in the corner of a door outside. ( Definitely not a while rat plus we don't have wild rats here only mice ) I scooped her up in a shoebox and took her home. I happened to have one extra cage since I had just lost one of my Dimon. In about two weeks she surprised me with 12 baby ratties. I barely owned her over a year before she developed a very large tumor on her rear. Then I lost her. Though I have no idea how old she was when I got her. If anyone knows how to tell please inform me.
RIP
Kate
No pic (She was a black hooded female)
Kate is one of the children of Mckiey. She was only a year old when she suddenly died. I don't know exactly what happened she was doing just fine the day before but in the morning she was dead. The only thing I think that was different about the night before was that I gave my ratties a treat: the stem of some broccoli. sad If anyone knows if something is wrong with feeding them broccoli please let me know.
