About
This is a community (probably quite low-traffic, but it will be what we make of it) about degus. We welcome all pictures, stories, and information about our little squeaky friends. Cheers!

If you are a considering buying a degu, please read this page before you do! Degus are a long-term commitment and they're certainly not for everyone. Please do not buy degus on a whim; more and more degus are being turned in to animal shelters by people who were unprepared for the experience of owning them.

stickynote by kiellicons: Psst! The comm rules do apply to you too, princess.
Meep! Advertisements for other communities or unrelated products will be chewed to bits, urinated on, and flung into the sand bowl or across the room as we see fit. Flamers will be kicked out of the cage altogether.
