So my last gerbil died on Friday - he had been ill for a while and he was on his own so I couldn't really be that sad - I shed a few tears and buried him and told him what a beautiful boy he was. No more gerbils for me - all small rodents are now out of bounds!
On a more positive note, the some of the fish eggs hatched, so I now have a few little goldfish fry swimming about - they are so bizarre, like tiny see through things with little black dots for eyes - I seem to spend ages hunting for them in the tank. I bought a new plastic tank for them so they wouldn't get eaten so I hope they survive - they are so cool!
