Looks pretty cool; I wonder if they have this for hamsters.

[Die Fledermaus]

Ha! It is not in Nashua again, the center of the gerbil universe?!

Katie, they have had these for many years.

The hamster shows I have heard about are in California. It seems that is where the only hamster is located in the US right now. We need one on the east coast side.

I got my two boy gerbils already registered for the show.

I will be running the photo contest and the raffle/silent auction. If anyone has stuff to donate for the raffle/auction, let me know or email at:

There is going to be 2 pet classes. If your child wants to enter his/her pet gerbil, they can do so there. They need to register for the pet class at the site.

I don't have any current gerbil photos, certainly none that are really cute. And I would be loathe to send photos of deceased gerbils. But, if you want some, look at my Memorial Gallery photos (see my signature) and check out the gerbils there.

If anyone is coming and want to reserve any of my knitted critters or would like one made, This is what I am planning on bringing. I can make knitted gerbils to order as long as I have the yarn to make.

I am always welcome on yarn suggestions for real gerbil colors.

The gerbil show was fantastic!. My little boy Spot won a blue ribbon in the Black Mottled Class.

I created a showpage with all the news, photos and videos from the show. Go check it out. My sister took the many videos.

If you never seen a blue gerbil before, I have one pictured on the page. They were the first to be seen and shown in America.

Smurf's purty! Great choice of name!

[Die Fledermaus]

Congrats to Spot.

Smurf (blue):


Does he have similar fur to Max the blue rat? kanez.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rats&action=display&thread=2861

Holy crap. I have had Max six months already!

Anyway, I have six gerbs now, a lot less than I once had. No more until natural attitrion cuts down on my spiny and fancy mice.

(Anyone get that?)

Nice gerbil site. Will take a long time to check everything out.
