Hickory, Dickory and Doc

(2008 - 2011)

Hickory with his brown and white spots was a pied agouti, Dickory was a Siamese as he had the same markings as a grey Siamese cat, and Doc was a dark grey slate. Hickory, Dickory and Doc were our first real "troublemakers". They figured out early on that if one gerbil held the wheel steady the other two could climb on top of it and chew on the cover of the tank. They had actually managed to make a small hole in the mesh of the top before the staff became smart enough to lower the wheel. Doc became ill and retired in the late summer of 2010, Hickory and Dickory stayed on and retired in March of 2011.
