Happy 2nd Birthday Peej!! Hope you get what you want and have a great day exploring, running on your wheel, or doing what gerbils do best. Btw Andrea--how did you get his name? It's different and nice.

Well all my gerbils are named after Vehicles and Vehicle companies. My Boyfriend has a Jeep Comanchee pickup and wanted to name Peej after his truck... i didn't like Jeep or Comanchee as a name, so i turned Jeep around backwards, and now we have Peej

In this tradition I will name my next critters Edsel and Studebaker! ;D Glad to see they are well as I lost Marge, a sapphire, yesterday - Memorial Photo Gallery to be updated soon. I lost two fancy mice also. Anyway, Happy Birthday Peej. He has the same B-Day as Abraham Lincoln!

Thanks. It is always surprising or even shocking when one turns up dead. Marge didn't look quite right in the eyes yesterday (not as big or bright), but she drank normally. Burials in the Spring.

Interesting that you say "burials in the spring." When Pinky died a year ago last month my landlord and I were able to bury him readily since it hadn't been cold and the ground was soft. If I had had a loss recently that certainly would not have happened.
Freezing rain is falling here, speaking of weather. What's it doing in NYC? So much for the big snowstorm. Is anyone getting it?

As I have said, and as the memorial gallery shows in my sig, I bury them in a big cemetery, and it is too difficult to do that in cold wet weather. They get buried DEEP and under heavy rocks to discourage scavengers (and they do).
We are starting to get lots of messy snow right now in NYC with some rain. I am not sure how much will stick, but perhaps it will get colder.

Oh, I know that's how you bury your rodents. Rather, my memory was jogged by your comment--that it made me think of how I could easily bury Pinky last year (but never now).
We are getting showers now that are purported to turn to snow. Since all of the precip out there will turn to ice with overnight temps in the teens, it's going to be precarious going tomorrow. The driveway here floods--it will thus be a sheet of ice.

Weather is rotten here in NYC right now - cold, snow, wind. And I live on the top floor of an apartment house, and the roof door has fallen off! Snow is blowing in. Rotten landlord, but he is loosing heat (he will try and pass it along to us). But I would still take this weather over the worst heat and humidity and bugs and sweat of Summer.
Nobody gets buried here until late March at the earliest, at the cemetery.
