Our gerbil, Joey seems to be dying. It is pretty obvious. He can barely walk, he falls over, we think he is blind too. We have never been able to touch the thing, it would attack. We can now. It is so sad to see, he is really skinny and you can see he is having a hard time breathing.
What do we do?? My daughter is having a very hard time watching him like this, as I am too. Will a vet even put a gerbil to sleep and it it gonna cost me a ton of $? My mom said to put him outside in his cage maybe it would speed up his death, that seems kinda mean to me...but so is making him die slowly.
Oh, the drama....
Do we go buy another right away? I mean we do have the cage, the food etc??
This is why I don't having pets.
What do you think?

Honestly, this may have to be a scenario where you buy another one while Merci is at school so that it's there when she gets home and Josh takes Joey outside and puts it out of its' misery with a rock....it's gross, but it is an option...
I'm working on responding to your other emails today
:( :( :(
Oh man...I know by now he's already gone. Poor thing!! Hows Merci taking it?
