Deaths in the family

The gf and I lost two from our rat family over the weekend. The last of my original four rats, Calle, died in his sleep Saturday afternoon. He was just a week short of his 30th monthday.

Schwartz, part of the gf's second wave of rats and Calle's sister, was PTS on Monday. She had been growing weaker and weaker and she started bleeding from either her vagina or urethra.

Sorry I've no pictures, but there are some, along with more details into their life with us, at the Ratablog.

Sorry to hear that, Victor and Nic. :-(

Late, and sorry about it, but my sympathies for your loss. I've lost five over the years, and for the most part each was the hardest. Well, except maybe Lucretia... she never did quit biting me.
