Pump It

December 20 2021

Two female gerbils, to be exact, dubbed Honey Boba and Lychee Tea by her mother-in-law. For Christmas, Grandma had unilaterally decided that the Pump It Multi Color Shirt, 3 and 1 years old, couldn’t live without them. “And now, thanks to her,” hissed Eliza, slapping a chart back in the rack, “now I’ve got rats in my house!” I decided it best not to point out that gerbils were only rodents, not rats, and moreover that domesticated rats were actually very clean, docile creatures. I could tell that wasn’t really the point. “So… what are you gonna do with them, then?” Eliza threw her hands up angrily. “Oh, hell, do I know? Let them loose in the backyard I suppose. What difference does it make?” But we live in the high desert, I thought. These gerbils were raised in a pet store. They could be eaten by owls, snakes, coyotes— or just starve to death. Freeze to death, even. The thought of the poor frightened creatures, hungry, scared and shivering in the face of their own mortality horrified me.
