The New York Gerbil (and more) is owned and operated by me - Cara-lee. (With a name like that there is hardly any need for a last name.) LOL I am an adult woman (in extreme denial about chronilogical description of self) who has been in a LTR for about 9 years now with "THE one" for me. HE is Roy. I reside in upstate NY very near the VT border. I spend most of my time at home due to a panic disorder and have had to get VERY creative to compensate for this in persuit of "a life." This is how the "whole thing" started..........
I began raising small animals more than 6 years ago. We went to our local pet shop here in Whitehall and fell in love with thier little black gerbils. The only problem is that there were three.... We could only afford 2 and didn't feel right about leaving one alone so upon explaining my delima, the owner (a close associate of mine now) gave me the third one. So we went home and began something that I never imagined would get this far. We began altering the wire cages that we were using and creating much more fun, workable, and stimulating environments than we had started with. I loved the little gerbils soooooooo much that we then purchased a female (Momma Mia) from another pet shop in Southern NY. I just knew somehow that she should not be related to the boys. (Hint #2). : ) Well we paired Momma up with one of the boys and soon enough we helped create more of the little critter that I loved so much. All this time I couldn't help but think that as lovely as these little critters are "there's just got to be more". (This was the third and defining momentary hint.) So we began to explore the internet in search of "more." We happened across the American Gerbil Society and OFF WE WENT!!! Once upon a time we actually had 13 pairs of gerbils. WELL - what do you expect with all of the wonderful colors and exceptional breeders and owners we had become exposed to! LOL We also got into exploring all of the information that we could find on all kinds of species of small animals. To date we have had or do have gerbils, Shaw's and Bushy Tailed jirds, dormice, degus, dwarf hamsters, chinese hamsters, hairless dwarfs, Syrian hamsters and of course we have 2 cats and a dog. We provide a rescue service for local unwanted wee ones - the 4 legged kind! We also sit on the Board for The American Gerbil Society as an alternate. With all of the joy and pride I found in the keeping of these small animals I just had to start a web page. That is how we became The New York Gerbil (and more). Now, here on E-bay we are attempting to share with other all of the unique, proven, and fun ideas we have accumulated since 1999. Very best and I hope you enjoy our store!
