Re: A living cartoon
It is called a jird (also spelt gird0. They are like gerbils and live about the same amount of time too.
They are classed as exotics and I think are about £75 just for one. They must live in pairs/groups.
That one was obviously very young.

Re: A living cartoon
If it's a Jird...why does the vid say Jerboa? 
Upon further research it doesn't look like a Jird. It looks like a Jerboa

Re: A living cartoon
It's definitely a Jerboa  I know people that keep Jirds and they are more Gerbil looking.
How cute!

Re: A living cartoon
Is it bad that I had never heard of a Jerboa before this thread? It's kinda cute yet slightly alarming at the same time.

Your not on your own Roxie..iv never heard of them either.
Can someone fill us in on just what these things are, how long they live for, etc.
And do they make good pets...not that I'm going to replace Squeak or anything 
Thanks all
