Once you have fallen in love with a cute gerbil and you want him to come home with you then the next step is provide him with a warm and comfortable gerbil cage.

Most of the cages we offer at Ideas-4Pets double up or treble up as they can be homes for hamsters, mice and gerbils. Gerbils live for up to 5 years.

We have a range of gerbil cages which are colourful and are easily assembled. Our pet products are easy to keep clean and will make a good home for your gerbil.

Please note, if you have a family cat beware of your gerbil getting out of his cage at cleaning time. Use dust free pet bedding on the bottom of your pet’s cage.

We at Ideas-4Pets recommend you purchase one of the larger gerbil cages that you can afford and one where your new pet has plenty of room to run around.

While you are making up your mind as to which sort of gerbil cages you should be purchasing for your new pet, let us at Ideas-4-Pets give you some information on gerbil care:

All pets including gerbils need exercise and the best way to keep your pet in good condition is by purchasing gerbils toys such as an exercise wheel or ladders.

Inner cardboard tubes taken from toilet rolls make fabulous toys. However if your pet becomes overweight he could become stuck.

Do not give your pet plastic baby toys as your gerbil may chew them and choke on small pieces.
