Earlier this year, we saved a little (baby) rat from being eatten by snakes. Little CC (as we started to call her for short) became part of our family, even my dad was starting to get use to her. Friday night, my mom and I gave her a bath, cleaned her cage and left her to go to a basketball game. Today while having supper, my mother called my male rat's name Ollie, and he popped his head up, but when we called her name she didn't move. So my dad whent to check on her, and tapped the side of her cage, she didn't move. Mom and I jumped up and whent to check on her... we found her dead, and even though she was only a rat, she felt like part of the family. RIP little one I'm gonna miss you.
Aww...sorry to hear about CC, she was cute for a rat! Think of it this way, although short, you gave her a wonderful spoiled life!
ReplyDeleteThanks DW, she was spoiled wasn't she? well she didnt seem to mind being spoiled... neither does Ollie or the dog... part of the family, you can't help but spoil them
ReplyDeleteWe shall miss her luv. And as dad says, she was given a longer chance than she would have had.
ReplyDeleteAh what a touching post you have done for little CC, Black Rose,.. sweet little thing.. I know what you mean... I never knew till we had these little guys as pets that we could ever fall in love with a rat!!!
