Canadian Guinea Pig is an unknown quantity at this point
Gerbil's sleep day or night?

Curious do Gerbil sleep in the day or do they sleep at night?

Padfoot is on a distinguished road
Gerbils are "crepuscular" which means that they have little bits of activity at day and little bits of activity at night, and sleep a little bit during the day and a little bit during the night. They have most activity at sunrise and sunset.
