Rescuing a Pair of Lady Gerbils! | Munchie's Place

[@MunchiesPlace]

What cage do you think the gerbil gals came in? Also what videos are you looking forward to from us in 2024? I'd love to know your thoughts on what you'd like to see.

[@adryanmarieperez2022]

this is a long shot. but you should definitely do a hamster supplies at the dollar tree video! there’s so much that you can diy loved to see what you can come up with

[@googleemail2368]

I thought the gerbils would be in a cage like the one you showed us. Sadly I was right. As for content in 2024 I always find any rescue stories really interesting. I think it is really important to show the hard work you do and hopefully this will also encourage people to adopt rather then go to pet stores.

An updated pet room tour and showing some of the pets

[@LimitedBones]

I liked hearing about your life in whatever way you're comfortable sharing!

[@twitchlet13]

I think it’s pretty clear that the son loved these gerbils. They are so friendly! Grateful that they’re in your care and he will be able to rest easy knowing that his pets are in a good place!

[@suspiciouslysollux590]

So sad, they wanted to keep friends hammy that couldn’t be kept anymore but didn’t see the irony with not being able to keep the Gerbs? Feel bad for the son :(

[@Ajuna90]

I'm so happy that you are back. ❤ I really like that you showed how you setup the enclosure.

[@BeaAnimals]

My gerbils are definitely not low budget 😂

[@fitzguineavision]

Hope your doing well. We miss you!

[@charlottemacdonald7116]

Welcome back Munchie. Hope your doing good. Love the new hair 😊❤

[@vaporwave3769]

You’re looking a lot healthier! I know you talked about poor health before, so I’m hoping you’re doing better in that regard.

[@stephainejacobs4021]

❤😂❤aww Can i have these sweet ladies ❤😂❤

[@natenaitopaku1947]

I have not seen a gerbil jump yet, only degus, but they do look similar in body structure, so if they are truly alike, yes they be jumping x3

[@celinerescues]

I'm so glad ur back! Love the hair too 😊

[@Xx.missy93]

[@LimitedBones]

[@sherrie553]

[@StonedSammieSue]

New hair braces off you look great for the return :D

[@roh677]

Welcome back!! I'm so happy that you're still looking out for these tiny souls! Looking forward to future videos.

[@EllaPlayzxx]

U deserve way more subscribers so more people can learn!

[@teijaflink2226]

I hope they boy teaches himself about small pet care, seems he cared about the gerbils and treated them well, except for not having the right cage and enrichment but the parents may not have let him get better stuff for them. Sad situation but the gerbils seem wonderful.

[@Saf333]

Super happy to see you back

[@No_Direction-99]

Happy to see you uploading again but sad small mammals are still mistreated and impulse bought out there… Welcome back btw! :)

[@memorimurasaki1913]

Hi Munchie! So lovely to see you! ❤ Such sweet ladies you got there.

[@giovannisingergs4159]

I would like to see more rescue and take stories or some Mice care tip video because I want to own mice someday but I don't know that much about mice care video that would be amazing or if you have any recommendations of mice owners I should check out on KZbin I would really appreciate that too

[@alexacook6421]

yayyy hello munchieeee

[@MaryB3ary]

so good to hear and see you again! thanks for the video, those gerbils are so damn cute!

[@PetConnectionInternational]

Awh they're so sweet, they look so happy in their new tank, and they look just like my miss Sandy pants 🥰 so funny that you found a munchie too, my Misty Moo used to be called Munchie, I took her in after her sister sadly passed, she bonded beautifully with miss Luna, so I changed her name to match. Nibbles & Munchie are lucky you found them and I'm sure they'll find a wonderful home soon ❤️

[@shoretrader1]

Beautiful Hollywood smile :)

[@xxsparrowxx8568]

Your braces are off! congratulations 🥳

[@romaikadressage]

Glad to see you're back making videos! I've even gotten my husband to watch your videos. We love watching your journeys! :)

[@fitzguineavision]

Good to see you back!!

[@quedotelancine1685]

[@MamaRockyS]

[@amac6421]

Glad to see you back!

[@isabella9745]

WELCOMEE BACK MUNCHIIIE

[@eriathwen1320]

Aw welcome back! This makes me miss my gerbils.. ive stuck with dwarf hamsters for a couple years but given my current madams temperament I think I'll be going back to gerbils for a little while 😅

[@pumpkinthahamster]

So wonderful! Beautiful gerbils! Inspires me to hopefully one day be able to rescue small animals :)

[@xxJamiexx]

Gerbils are pricey. But worth it

[@Dragonfly_Draws]

Your back I'm so glad to see you hope your doing better

[@sephorats89]

Good morning Munchie! Super happy to see you back! Btw I’m loving the hair ❤

[@raquelreyes7334]

Hello Munchie! Glad to see those two adorable girls safe with you! I have two lovely 4 year old gerbils. They definitely have older dad bods 😁

[@pookieconan]

Welcome back! Hope you’re doing well. I have 3 male rats now. Rest in peace my sweeties Rosie muffin waffle my hamsters (seperste cages) still wondering what to do with the detolf muffin my female Syrian had

[@user927-w3h]

So glad you are back, you were always doing God’s work with this rescue so I think it’s perfect to restart the channel to help spread awareness about good care

[@rawrrico]

Oh my gosh i was so happy to see you uploaded a video i missed your content 😭😭

[@lainightwalker5495]

eh! today is a good day, theres a munchi video : ) i love the Bob. i have a soft spot for gerbils. we had a small group in my classroom as a kid. in a biiiig tank with lots of soil for them to dig in and homeraised worms for snacks. this was in the start to middle 1990s. hadent realised that it was ahead of the times, carewise.

[@im-a-person-1234]

love the new cage

[@Kuro_Reaper]

Am so happy to see you are back again! I hope everything starts getting better for you this year! Have missed your vids and have been inspired that in the future I would like to start a Hamster rescue of my own in my own country, but life needs to be together first. Until then I will keep bein the servant to my own hammies. :)

[@xxsparrowxx8568]

There you are! yay! 🤗🤗🤗

[@amandamartin1880]

I'm so happy that you're uploading again :D

[@susanbelrose2767]

great to see you! Adorable Gerbils!

[@Darkshade_01]

Wonderful

[@laurawilson5666]

Missed you!!!!!

[@corym.]

🎉a video ❤️

[@tcroncero]

I have some sympathy for calling them low-budget, even though what you said is also correct. I have two small dogs and three mice. After start-up costs (cage, wheel, etc.), the mice do feel cheaper compared to the dogs, even though as you said bedding and such is usually around 100 a month. But that overall seems less when I consider how much I spend on my dog.

[@xxJamiexx]

Are you happy with the cages in the back? 😊

[@Dr3Mc3Ninja]

Recently saw one those stupid travelling zoos aimed at children's parties. Guinea pigs huddled together, no hides, no bed, standing on the coat street slab. Just an open-top pen that was maybe 50cm in diameter. They had rabbits in the same way. The animals not being given any sort of private, secure hide to retreat to, to escape being petted and picked up by random passersby. It annoyed me. Even had a young hedgehog, as if that isn't a nocturnal animal. I respect wildlife organisations that showcase wild animals, but this was calling itself a travelling farm yet it had exotic pets like tortoises, snakes and a bearded dragon. Northern Irish farms don't keep reptiles or hedgehogs.

[@originalkingdomhearts]

So they got rid of one animal for a new animal? These are the people who need to stay away from animals. That son needs to get away from his parents.

[@Jaceisdabest]

hey munchie! i noticed you used a softwood hide, how do you feel about the risks associated with them?

[@MunchiesPlace]

Which hide you're referring to? If you're referring to the natural wood hide that was heavily chewed but used as a window hide for the gerbil tank, that's a hide from petsmart and is not the trixie hides, as I've heard that debate before till the company was contacted years ago and made it known they used Chinese fir with non toxic glue. I will agree with people that softwoods aren't as strong, however they've never been a problem for us and the "splinter" debate is silly when i've had splinters from other woods, worse than softwoods. I do easily break the wood from petsmart often while spot cleaning them which sucks but then they're naturally burned/thrown away or used as a chew toy if small enough. Some products do use metal nails, however I've never seen an inquiry from hamsters/gerbils chewing down to the metal structure. They tend to chew around an exposed nail when it does happen and that's been on bendy bridges I use. The hide I used only contains glue and not nails. After saving XXX amount of small animals for the last 7 years, it isn't a problem for us and will continue to use said petsmart products till they expire from over use.

[@Jaceisdabest]

good to know! i’ve definitely heard some controversies and i’ve thrown away all the softwood products i’ve had out of fear. i’ve seen a few rescues still using them so that makes me feel a bit better about the wood! thank you
