Clothe materials are not safe to use with gerbils because they will shred the material and the fibers can then wrap around feet and limbs cutting off circulation. This is especially dangerous when pups are present. Instead, make a hammock out of paper and cardboard with non toxic children's white glue. If you would like to see ideas on what you can make for your gerbils. See-- http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Estates/4185/ -- Gary's web pages - http://home.talkcity.com/StudioDr/go5
