Here's an updated list of the "How to Find and What to Look for in a Gerbil
Vet" list that I am working on for my website. Please feel free to add to
it, or perhaps criticize any items. I plan on putting at the bottom of the
web page: "This List was Compiled with the help of GML Members" (and GML
being a link to the GML site) I figured that would be easier then trying to
remember who said what.
Thanks

1. Call around and see what vets will treat your gerbils if the need arises
2. Ask other exotic pet owners/breeder if they've taken their pet to the
vet, who it was and their opinion of the place. (Look on bulletin boards at
pet shop..breeders often post business cards there)
3. Look for cleanliness in the vets office..if you're not satisfied...look
for another vet.
4. Try searching online for a local vet, or visit
www.vin.com/PetCare/Main.htm You can also try searching for other places
online where you can talk one on one with a vet or leave a message on a
message board if you're in a location where a suitable vet cannot be found.
5. See if the vet has treated gerbils before, perhaps has even owned gerbils.
