Hi there, :hello3:
I can't believe how time flies lately. Since April, I've had 1 rat pts and 3 have passed away. One of them was my heart rat, Noelle. Just writing her name makes my eyes water. :sad3: I guess I was in a little depression since her death.
But my life is really good with my babies. I still have 5 oldies in their retirement cage and 15 young vibrant sweeties in a three level FN.
First, my 33 month old Eve, Noelle's sister. I can't believe how strong going she is. She waddles around the cage, still being her bossy self.
Nom, nom, nom!
Then there's my sweet beautiful Simon. He's also 33 months old. Like Eve, he waddles too but at least he's not at the dragging his feet stage yet.
His fawn color is super orange.
Here's Holly. She has chronic myco and on meds. She also developped a tumor last June and it's growing.
But she's still very alert, loves to eat and so far, she can still get around in her cage. I dread the day that her tumor will be too big for her and I'll have to make the dreaded decision. :sad3: She is now 30 months old. :thumbup:
Another 30 month old is Charlie. She's got to be the cutest little blue dumbo senior rat I've ever had. :cuddle: She lives for cuddles with me even when she was very healthy. Now it seems her chronic myco is winning the battle and I might lose this sweet princess very soon. :sad3:
Holly and Charlie :cuddle:
Finally the youngest senior @ 29 months old is my licky, licky Max. He's a rex agouti and so very soft. He's my doll. :heart:
Then, there's my young ones. :heart:
There's Oliver - 11 months old. I think he's alpha. He's jorat's Prue's brother
Naya, the dumbo queen also 11 months old. Shelagh had Naya and her sister Trini in her care and I fell in love with them.
Jozelle is 7 months old and she's one of Prue and Oliver's daughter.
Another cute princess and Jozelle's sister, Milene.
Shep is the brother to Jozelle and Milene and he looks so much like his dad. I have to look at the bellies to see who's who. :nod:
Then there's the girls from the SPCA here in sudbury. Winter, Sunny and Cara, 7 months old.
Winter is not a Pew. She actually has a very faint hood.
Sunny is in between Fiji and Mitzi.
Cara with little Rose (from right to left)
The rest are from the three surprise litters that mamarat and morats rescued, raised and fell in love. :lol:
I acquired two from each litter. :heart: :joy:
Dana and Rose are from mamarat's Daisy's litter.
Dana is my super hyper clown. She makes me laugh so much.
Her sister, Rose is the opposite, shy and sweet.
Mamarat's April's litter produced a Fiji and Yvette and came to live with me.
Fiji (beige hooded) is my little explorer and loves to give kisses. She'll even stretch over to my face to lick my lips. So sweet. :heart:
And here's Yvette (black hooded) with Shep and scene stealer, Milene. :lol: She just wants to play with her cage mates all the time.
Mitzi and Susie are two rex girls that I love, love, love!! :nod: Jani, their naked mom lives with mamarat.
These girls know how to have fun. They are so friggin happy all the time. lol
Beautiful Susie:
Mitzi beside Milene
Finally found a pic with Trini (Naya's sister). She's the himi.
From left to right; Milene, of course, :wink: Sunny, Trini and Susie
I didn't think this post would be this long...phew. :blahblah: I hope you enjoyed the update. :lol2:
