....feeling a little lost with only 5 ratties. After having a decent number (15+) for the past 2 years 5 seems lonely. Now before you all jump in and offer me more babies :giggle: (which I would love to be able to take) I will stop you by saying there is a good chance I will be moving north, like waaaaaaay north this September. I ended up doing my Bachelor of Education (teacher's college) to become a high school physics and math teacher but as some people may know there are a ton of teachers in Ontario and not so many jobs. So I have made the decision to take a year and move north to get some experience so no new rats for me until I come back.

These past few months have been hard because all of my babies were around the same age. This month alone I have lost 6. So I am in the process of downsizing all my stuff and I can't believe how much stuff has accumulated. It's actually a bit ridiculous :giggle:

I will do a rat thread and probably a memorial thread later but for now I just wanted to say hi everyone and Happy Valentine's Day!

Welcome back! So you liked North Bay that much that you are heading further north? lol

Haha I actually hate the cold but right now north is where the jobs and the money is. I plan to go at least as far as Moosonee or possibly northern Alberta or even the territories. I need to do a lot of research and talk to some other teachers who have gone north to get some advice.

Yeah they were, the chilly rats. I actually had 4 of them Lily, Mackenzie, Cane and Caleb and they all died due to heart murmurs :(
 
Firstly, wow. That is such an adorable picture. Will anyone second my nominating it for RPOM?! :)

Welcome back. I'm sorry about your babies. :(

How are they doing?

Both are gone. Glinda was respiratory and not sure what happened with Columbia. It could have been a heart issue, but it also could have been respiratory. Those girls had such horrible lungs. They were all such pretty girls.
