<< You know, if I owned a pet store, and some kid kept buying my gerbils, I'd
stock more.
That would be my crafty plan.
Or, I'd send Kirsten an Email, describing thier deplorable condtions, and
scam the $25 for shipping off of her. Heh.
All kinds of flaws there. >>
I agree, I think many people will try to take you for your money. And a
business buys more of something when it looks like a good product..if the
gerbils keep selling well..they'll just get more and more and more. I think
a good GR would be asking people to join a Gerbil Rescue group: A group of
volunteers that takes in gerbils from shelters. My mom is a member of the
Middle Tennesee Golden Retriever Rescue. Whenever a Golden Retriever enters
a shelter..the shelter has a group of people in the area to call to take the
dog in. That leaves room for other dogs, and prospective owners can see the
dog in a home atmosphere instead of a kennel of barking dogs, the shelter
then knows who to contact if a person comes in looking for a Golden
Retriever...there are many other benefits too..but on with the gerbils. So
basically make it an organization of gerbil rescuers. Any volunteers can be
added to the Gerbil Rescue Society and can post the gerbils they have rescued
to a common web site or something. I think you can see where this is all
going..if you have any suggestions..please post them on the list. Maybe if
we get past all this arguing we can make this into something worthwhile.
