Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / June 2006Jorja
Had to have Jorja PTS today. For the last couple of weeks she has been looking her age (33 months) a bit wobbly on the back legs but still wanted food. But over the weekend she seemed to give up and wouldn't even eat her favourite of Rice Pudding with Strawberry jam. She just wanted to be picked up and cuddled, so I obliged. I took her to bed with me last night and decided that the time had come this morning, Jenny the vet just cuddled her while she just put the little mask over her face, she didn't even struggle just took it in her stride, as she was always a strong willed little critter I think she just wanted the cuddle and the gas came secondary. Texas is a bit confused as I have put her in a smaller cage now as she is a little stiff and I don't want her struggling up the ladders. Hope all your little ones are in fine health?

She told me when it was time and it seemed to be easier to let go. SignatureJoanne Owned by 20 rats.

Its a hard decision to have to make, but it sounds like your furry was showing you its time. Rest in peace little one. jakewc2 www.furrycritters.co.uk http://community.webshots.com/user/jakewc2 >> Isn't it funny how sometimes they do know!

Jorja waits healthy and happy at The Bridge, in the company of all our ratties that have gone before. Julia and The Mischief Makers > Had to have Jorja PTS today.

Kind thoughts are winging their way to you Jackie..;) What an amazing age to get to. It just has to be the pudding that did it..:) Regards Kate SignatureToday I may meet with injustice, ignorance, denial, all of which are due entirely to the other's lack of knowledge of good and evil and the difference thereof. http://community.webshots.com/user/ollieogg > Had to have Jorja PTS today.

I'm so sorry, Jackie. Try and take comfort in the fact she had a long and happy life and knew she was loved to pieces. Tracey |
