Rats

Afina and Artemis the day we brought them home.

As I was thinking about events of the last year, I have to say that sadly both of our rats are no longer with us. According to Husband he came home and found Afina dead from what seems like an internal explosion. I was very happy that I didn't get to see it, seeing the blood spatter all over the walls was enough for me. Poor girl. Artemis lived for another 6 months, but the tumors started to overtake her, watching her rid with tumors and practically unable to move was heartbreaking, so we had to let her go. We both agreed that although the rats are very cute little critters they just do not live long enough, and we swore that we will not bring another rat into our house.
