Warning: This story involves death, please don't read if that will upset/disturb you
I'm currently visiting the town I used to live in, as some of you know, I brought the gerbils with me. I got back in touch with an old friend that I used to talk to and she came to visit yesterday. Let's just say she's changed a lot- not a very caring or responsible person, I guess you'd say. She saw my gerbils and decided to tell me a story that she thought was funny. She told me how she was at a friend's house who had gerbils, and she was holding one. The gerbil ran out of her hands and under the bed. Apparently someone else that was in the room decided to sit on the bed while the gerbil was under it. The bed collapsed. The gerbil was killed, and everyone thought it was hilarious. The friend that told me this story also thought it was funny, laughing while she told me about it. Then afterwards she asked to hold one of my gerbils. Of course, I said no.

That person would no longer be my "friend". I can't stand people with no respect for life.

People like that do not deserve to be in contact with any sort of pets, not just gerbils

I am deeply upset by that story of a beautiful clawed warrior being killed in a tragic bedroom accident.
Certainly not funny, RIP beautiful one

I would have said no as well. It sounds like your friend doesn't understand how insensitive she is being.
Please remind your ‘friend’ that Jeffrey Dahmer, Albert DeSalvo (the “Boston strangler”), David Berkowitz (the “Son of Sam”) and Carroll Edward Cole, a serial killer accused of 35 deaths, all recounted animal torture as their first violent act.

Not funny at all. That's horrible. RIP gerbil, its passing really wasn't fair. I can't believe how insensitive people can be.

D: I would kick her out of my house. Isn't thinking stuff like that is funny a sign of a serial killer or something!?
