DEFINETLY NO!!!! guinea pigs get spooked very easily, especially if it is larger than them. I introduced my cat and my guinea pig, and my guinea pig started squeaking so loud it was deafenig. It was so sAD- DONT DO IT!!
Yes, but if you want to re-introduce them, it will be hard.
it all depends on how you introduce them because i have two gerbil and one is an adult and one is still young and they get along very well If a Gerbil has lived alone for a long time however it can be very difficult to introduce a new friend to it. I have a 2 year old female that refuses to accept a companion however the younger one I bought to pair with her happily accepted a baby Gerbil as a friend.
many animals especially gerbils enjoy company of their own kind and if you don't want baby gerbils the same sex keeps that from happening.
Yes, they will become lonely and depressed if they don't have another gerbil. You usually buy gerbils in pairs to stop this problem. However it is very dangerous to introduce two gerbils who have never met before. They can often end up killing each other. As when you buy them in pairs they are siblings. And have been together since a young age.
The plural of gerbil is gerbils, as in: I have two gerbils. Hope this is useful.
As with most mammals, two, a male and a female
Yes, if you buy them from a shop you usually get them in pairs. This is because they get lonely and depressed on their own.

No i should not
Sure, but put a see-through divider in the cage for a couple of days and switch the gerbils twice daily so they can get used to each other.
get something which smells of the one cat and introduce that with the other cat! Then slowly for short amount of time every day introduce them!
Gerbils live for around two to four years. Sometimes even five.
Yes but u would have to get them at the same age and from the same family of gerbils
