I just went to go to bed after giving Elora her bottle.
Normaly when I'm going to bed Twyla (my pet rat) is scrambeling for a treat and sneazing at me (that's a rat's irritated noise) if I don't give her one.
I walked by her cage... no scambel. No grunting. No sneezing.
Cause there's no breathing.
I know rats only live 2-3 years... and she was almost 3 and a half... but I'm still really sad and had a hell of a cry.
Really it's the wrong time of the month for anything sad to be happening.
But still... I'd be crying even if my uterus didn't hate me right now.
I love that little rodent.
