Eevee came to us on 8/4/24 because his owner had become allergic to him.
Fostered by Maggie in Cambridge, MA.
#2024444N, “Eevee”, Gerbil, Beige, , Gerbil, Male, DOB: 04/12/2024, Spayed/Neutered?: No
Special Needs: Eevee has bitten
UPDATE 9/5/25:
Eevee had a great summer! His favorite activity has been having his seeds and treats wrapped in tissue and then put into a closed egg carton. It’s a fun puzzle and keeps him busy chewing through it and sniffing around. He would love to be adopted by someone who can keep him stimulated and having fun.
UPDATE 7/3/25:
Eevee has come so far! He does not like being handled but I can stick my hand in his tank to move his wheel etc. and he won’t lunge to bite anymore. He loves life! Always busy working on his chewing projects and running marathons on his wheel.
UPDATE 1/15/25:
Eevee has such a unique personality! He is very smart and enjoys stimulation with various types of cardboard and chews. While you cannot handle him without being nipped, he does come out to say hi any time he hears you enter the room. He loves sunflower seed treats!
UPDATE 9/5/24:
Eevee is entertaining to watch and easy to spoil!
Eevee is very curious and active, but he bites. In order to safely handle Pikachu, you must use a bite glove while scooping him out of the enclosure. Similarly, when tank cleaning day comes, you will need to let Eevee enter his temporary cleaning tank on his own or use a bite glove to scoop him up. After a month in foster care, Eevee has made it clear that he does not like to be held or even have hands near him. He is not suited for young children, but will do great with an adopter who will respect his boundaries.
He loves to run on his wheel. He also loves any sort of cardboard box and tube and will race to chew it all up.
