Dear All

I'm AWOL, sorry.

Virus made me quite ill + dealing with the DWP = also really ill.

My head is a mess, my stomach is a mess, I keep melting down & dissociating. I'm generally in no fit state to be awake.

Normal rat service will resume when things/I are stable again.

Meanwhile; Tyr.

My little Boo is making a comeback.

Her PT meds have kicked in and she's feeling SO MUCH BETTER!

She's eating well and using her hands again 😊

She's on quite the cocktail of meds now!

Ahhh ... my little Boo has PT symptoms today 😞

Vets tomorrow for some meds.

Please cross your fingers that she has a good response! 🤞

Best friends Berry and Fizzgig ❤️

They like to do everything together so they will both be going to the Vet next week even though it's only Fizzy who needs an appointment (he seems to be having what I suspect is a thyroid issue).

My Curly-Bobs has left me and I'm gutted.

Bye Curly, my big ol' goofball, I hope you still get to bounce around like a fool wherever you've ended up.

Ratgirl, Ratgirl, always furry,
How does your Rat Ritz grow?
With silver bells, and empty nut shells,
And squishy boys all in a row.

Curly-Bobs & Frizzle demanding the door be opened!

They live in a large rabbit cage because Curly's legs are a bit rubbish now, & they live as a pair (their brothers passed away) because Frizzle is a dominant maniac who can't be trusted with other rats.

Spent most of my time unwrapping and rewrapping this present the Vets gave me.

It's Fudgey, she had surgery on the 23rd and has had to wear a burrito bandage of shame because she can't be trusted with her stitches!

She's pissed at me but healing well 😊
