More About Gerbils

On the eleventh of November 2005, Sunflower got sick. She was acting very strange. She couldn't jump, she was keeping her eyes closed, and was not eating. When she tried to jump up on top of her nest box, her legs got stiff and she fell over backwards. She wouldn't even eat her favorite food, which was pumpkin seeds. She was spending most of her time hiding in her nest, drinking, and chewing on her mineral wheel. She stayed like that for three days. Then she got better for a week. On the twenty-first, she died. :'(
