Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / April 2007Life has passed for our DEAR Stratocaster
Our last female died about a half hour ago. She was a cantankerous old girl. She made it to 28 months and 6 days. Like her sister Bo, who died last week, she was hairless and fighting abscesses. She had also gone blind, but that was no big deal to her, she was a true strong lady. She had never taken a shine to me, that is until her ailments. Then she really seemed to appreciate my efforts to keep her clean and comfortable. She was so my daughter's rat and died while Andrea held her. I am glad they shared that last time together. Her brother, Junior, truly seemed upset by the loss. He twitched and poked around and cleaned her. We are now just 3 boys. Junior is the only surviving member of our original family. Thank you all for listening.  SignatureLynn "kitty" My kindest thoughts are sent your way. It never gets easy but the heartbreak is worth it for all the memories you have and the knowledge that one day Stratocaster will be there for you just as you were for her.

It must be even more sad with your rat numbers getting smaller and Junior being the last of his family. Hugs, Dewi Hugs for all you wonderful people. You really are the best. Junior is fairing well, but tonight Andrea broke his bed accidentally. Being that he has rear-end paralysis, I am a bit aggravated. It was perfect for his inability to hoist up. We will work it out. He is most likely smarter than I am, giggle, and will adapt to the new situation I have set up for him. It sure is lonely with only 3 fur-babes. We will have to adopt more as soon as we can. Hugs again for being here for us. Lynn kitty On Apr 1, 5:09 pm, "Lynn \"kitty\"" <kittybluebu...@dontbother.net> wrote: > Our last female died about a half hour ago.

Apologies to any others that have lost their little ones. I have not been able to access the group the oraml way so had to come through Google. Jackie and the Boys |
