In all the rats I have ever owned (20+, all males) only one has had to be neutered. Until now.
Shiloh, my little dumbo s'meese, is going in tomorrow morning to get his nads removed.
He's got a spot of melanoma on his googlies and it has been slowly growing a little bigger over the course of the last few months. The vet took a look at it when I brought Squid in, and said he could neuter Shiloh and the melanoma would be taken care of.
I'll try and get a "before" pic of his boy bits to show what a melanoma on the scrotum looks like, in case anyone wants a reference.
I'm just glad it's in a pretty "easy" area to take care of and not on his face or ear or anything.
Healing vibes would be appreciated for both Shiloh and Squid!
