WPP #12- Esmeralda


This is Esmeralda.  She used to be a caramel/ honey color gerbil, but she is a little more than 2 now so she is turning white.  We bought her and her 3 babies (Sophie, Geordi, and Data) from the Animal Welfare League after my last 2 gerbils passed away.  I wanted two, they had 4. I could not leave the other 2.
I was sitting next to her watching her build their nest.  They don't pouch like hamsters, and I did not like their tails in the beginning, but they are very cute to me now.  I just bought a new bottle for them too.  As you can see in the picture  the water level is low due to a small leak.  New bottle it is!  I just realized many times I talk about my cats and my poor gerbils do not get the front page...
