Book Reviews of Gerbils (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals)
Book Review: To little information
Summary: 2 Stars
I had a few gerbils as a kid, and came back to them as an adult. I was not the best pet owner as a child, and as an adult I wanted to do better, and make sure the gerbils I had were as happy as they could be. My husband and I looked in bookstores and pet stores and this was the only book we found, much to our disappointment. This book is at best a good introduction to gerbils, and has some basic care requirements that most people won't know. However, beyond the very basics I've found this book to be little help at all. The health information has failed to provide critical information every time we`ve needed it, and I've lost 3 gerbils in the past two years. (Store bought gerbils. Now I go to a reputable breeder to avoid the genetic defects.) The food information is not the best either, being vague and very general, and has left my husband and I confused on several points.
If you need a book to introduce your child to pet care, or if you just want the basics on gerbils yourself, this book is fine. If you're an adult wanting to adopt and take care of gerbils well, I suggest you look elsewhere. (The American Gerbil Society recommends Gerbils: The Complete Guide to Gerbil Care ) If you want to breed, for-the-love-of-God why are you looking at this book?
Summary of Gerbils (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals)
Here's information on purchase and maintenance of Gerbils. Books in the Complete Pet Owner's Manuals series present basic information about pets for new or soon-to-be owners, as well as detailed information for aquarium enthusiasts and other animal hobbyists. Advice and instruction covers purchase, general care and maintenance, and much more. Texts emphasize the basics and are easy for all readers to understand, but most titles in this series also presents facts that even experienced pet owners and hobbyists will find new and useful.
