Are your pets members of your family? (25th March 2008)
Do you think of your pets as family members? Is your cat or dog a replacement for the children that have now flown the nest? New research from the University of Warwick suggests what we've always suspected, that pets are sometimes more like family than our own kin. More...

Rescue :: Rodent rescue seeks
homes for Bob, Ron and 100 other gerbils
Rodent rescue seeks homes for Bob, Ron and 100 other gerbils
CavyRescue - the Kent based rodent rescue - are asking gerbils
lovers to step forward and give a home to some of their recent
new arrivals. Along with several other rescues, they recently
took in over one hundred gerbils from a house in Barking, Essex
and now some are fit enough to find loving homes.
Stella Hulott, co-founder of CavyRescue, says: "These
gerbils were rescued from appalling conditions and are now looking
for genuine, caring homes in the Kent area. Many of the gerbils
are too sick to rehome currently, and there are many pregnant
females. However, we do have many lovely, friendly furries here
desperate and ready for a great new home".
Among the gerbils - most of whom have stumpy tails, ripped
ears and toes missing - who are ready to find new homes are:
-
Kerry, Geri and Terri - three young black females
with stumpy tails to go together
-
Gary, Mark, Howard, Robbie and Jason - five
cream males with pink eyes - to go as a group or as a two
and a three
-
Bob and Ron - two young agouti males to go
together
All are incredibly friendly and need good, secure
homes and all potential new homes will be home checked.
Stella adds: "We hope that gerbil lovers in the area will
be able to offer some of these sad and scruffy furries a new
and happier life".
