They are even seen pouring tea, working at a desk and with a wheelbarrow.

Snapper Bailey Thompson spends hours with her nine gerbils on miniature sets.

The 26-year-old then puts the results on social media.

Bailey, of Ontario, Canada, said: “I’ll tell them what I want to do, show them the scene and sit there with my camera and wait until they’re in a good position.
