Re: gerbils and cats?

[Janet Morrow]

There are quite a few members of the list that have lost gerbils to cats and dogs.  It is important to have the lid secure enough to keep a determined cat out.    One thing that was discussed was to  purchase a set of shelves to place the tanks on.  The type you get at Wal-Mart for example that allow you to adjust the shelf height.  The tanks can be placed on the shelf so there only 1 or 2 inches of space is left between the tank and the next shelf.   Another option is to purchase extra tank clips.   Good luck, Janet Morrow American Gerbil Society -----Original Message----- From: Gerbil Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Claudia Burwitz Sent: Sunday, July 08, 2001 4:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: gerbils and cats? hello everbody, has anybody any expierence with gerbils and cats which have been in the household bevor?  my cats are very intrested in the gerbils(live tv for cat?) do i nee to secure the lid ?i think it is secure for the gerbils not to come out but for the cat to come in? have a nice day! claudia
