Last nite I went down to my rat room to see how one old man was doing to notice that in one cage the boys werent sleeping in their igloo but was missing one boy...
Looked in the igloo and noticed one boy in there, discovered that Phelan had passed away while sleeping, he was sleeping on his side/back, eyes closed....
He was well over 2 yrs old heading for 3.
Was a minkie berk who had been at a pet store and had wound of sorts on his back leg that they were not getting seen to, so I took him to my vets and wat ever the sore was it hung around the whole I had him - nothing seemed to make it disappear then the past 6 mths it cleared up and I have no idea why - maybe it was the male hormones dying down or something but I will never know....
He lived with his three friends Rufio, Nibs and best mate Toodles
RIP old man you lived well -
