I was going to do my post on Pokemon today, however one of my rats, Ben, died yesterday and I've been really sad about it. He was really struggling to breathe in the end. He had been sick for a long time. Actually, I thought he was going to die that morning because it was really terrible. The amount of time between his breaths was scary. He almost ( Read more... )

Sadly that never ( Read more... )

A few days ago my rat Freddy had to be put to sleep. He got an abscess in his eye and no one was doing anything, and it just got worse. I know he was suffering, so that's why we came to that decision. I can't believe the vets. My mom said she tried to take him there and they were going to make her pay $40 for a visit and then another $30 to put him ( Read more... )

Now Jax died two days ago. :( I hope it wasn't because he was depressed with Scooter being gone. But he was up there in age in rat years. He was so sweet and I really miss him.

Yesterday, my rat Scooter died. I noticed he had a lump near his leg a couple of weeks ago, so that might have something to do with it. He was slowing down some, but I don't think he really suffered much. RIP Scooter ( Read more... )
