I know this will ultimately be a doctor question. However I wanted to see what other mommies thought. Since moving into a townhouse that does not allow dogs/cats.. and being the animal lover I am.. I'm desperately wanting a small caged animal. I'm considering getting Gerbils, they same reasonabley easy to handle (I've owned hamsters, guinea pigs, hedge hog). I know you aren't suppose to change cat litter when pregnant. Didn't know if anyone knew about anything else with pregnancy and animals.. any advice appreciated (:
