OH my poor rat. She has been pretty sick the last few months and I decided I would help her give up the ghost today, because whatever she had was starting to really pack a punch on her little old blobby body. She was a good pet, and I euthanized her at home tonight using a homemade co2 chamber and some benadryl. I cried a lot but stayed with her until her last breath. I know it seems weird because she's is JUST A RAT! but she was my sweet pet, she was always happy to see me ( I think it was all about the treats). I don't think I'll get another rat for a while, if my kids want one then maybe. I just get too darn attached!
Here is to 75 long rat years!!
So long my sweet girl! You were the cutest rat ever.
She really was the cutest rat ever! I wasn't grossed out by her at all.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, Lalo. You will have to paint a little halo over her in the suitcase I made for you. :)
