Yes, I would. I have 2 adults and 5 pups myself. They are faithful companions with beautiful coats. They are much cuter than pet guinea pigs, mice, rats, and hamsters. They also bite less than them.

In the choice of buying a rodent, I would choose a gerbil, but watch out!! When you go to the pet store, hold the gerbil you want. This is very important. When I went to the pet store, I thought one gerbil was SO cute, then I held him. He bit the fire out of me and blood was pouring out of my finger onto the floor. If they do bite you and you bleed, (which gerbils bite very very rarely, and the females mostly bite.) try to squeeze most of the blood out, because they are rats, and as we know, some have diseases. So good luck finding a gerbil!

Make sure you find one YOU want. Oh, and males bite less. I recommend getting a orange male. They are so sweet. Males bite your shirt and put holes in them sometimes, so keep them away from your shirt. Reg1gy has a special "gerbil shirt" :3

they also produce little waste, so yes.
