I already typed this out, a massive post, typing from my heart really. But I lost the whole post, so I have to retype it. I'll try keep it shorter now.
Monkey was more than just a rat to me, she was really a massive part of my life... all of my rats are but she was something completely different. She came everywhere with me... car rides, ate dinner with me, slept in the same bed as me. That was the best thing. She would be under the covers all night and either cuddle right in next to me or wriggle up my top and sleep there.
I'm going to post a lot of pictures.... she was my most photogenic rat. I have over a thousand pictures of her.
Charlotte, Penny, and Heather arrive. Charlotte...
She gave birth to 4 girls. Gwen, everybodys crazy mad girl. Pink was always my mums girl. Hippo my younger sisters. And from the start, Monkey was "my" baby.
Monkey at 8 weeks
She really went through so many health problems that vets and we wondered how she was still so happy and going so well. She had epilepsy, and bad case of it too. But it got better as she aged.... she also had kidney failure.... ear infection, urine infection, cellulitis, pyometra, and a tumour at the end too which wasn't removed and didn't grow luckily.
Some random pictures of my baby.
Relaxing on my sister this month
Also this month
We looked out the window together a lot.... she loved the smell of fresh air!
Monkey and her sister Gwen came 2nd place in a valentines competition on here... Thank you all who voted again..... it was lovely, she loved the prizes and was sleeping in them the day before she left....
Her and her sister Pink in the prize. Pink was special to Monkey, they had a great bond....
Pink was PTS March 8th 2010...
She also loved Darcy (RIP)
My prize :joy:
The last ever picture of her.... it isn't nice that I'll never take another picture of her.
April 23rd
I should stop now. Crying too much.
