Awwwww. I do so love rats. I used to have two, although one we had to put down because she bit, and the other lived a long time but got a tumor, as many rats do. I hope it gets better, even if you don't keep it. I hate people who let animals loose in the wild instead of giving them to a shelter or something.

Aw, I hope the rat makes it! I wish people would learn that domesticated animals are very different from wild ones! It makes me so angry whenever people abandon animals. A few weeks ago my dad rescued a puppy that someone just left behind to fend by itself. The poor thing had almost gutted himself trying to work his way out of a barbed wire fence! The story has a good ending, though (as I hope yours does). He only came away with a few major scars and is the lankiest, sweetest thing I've ever met. I named him Wilt!

Well it died, last night or early this morning. As I understand rats that die in pain or distress clench up their paws and get that red discharge around the eyes, and it didn't have those, so I can only hope it passed on more or less peacefully. Still not sure if it was a boy or a girl - I tried doing an examination post-mortem but it was so stiff I couldn't really move the back legs out of the way. Oh well, I guess it doesn't really matter.

I'm sorry. At least you gave him a chance, and a place where he could go in peace.
