The label from a freshly purchased habitat - however, it will have a pair of gerbils, instead.

What is it with gerbils ? they seem to like sitting in the food bowls, even when not eating. This litter of pups have a splendid nest made from hay and wood shavings downstairs, but the cold glass bowl seemed to be more interesting than cuddling up with mam and pop.
