Rodentia morte (er, v. badly conjugated, I'm sure)

So Rodney the mouse finally kicked the bucket  :(  She was old (18 months is a respectable old age for a mouse) , fat, and riddled with tumors, but seemed to be in good spirits nonetheless. I went to feed the mice tonight and noticed her missing; found that the other two had buried her body neatly in a corner of the cage. She must've died sometime today (since she was still kickin' last night), fairly recently, since I didn't smell the decay (yes, I know that's nasty).

So, goodbye, Rodney. You led a life of sloth and indolence, and I hope you were happy in it.
