Never saw myself crying broken hearted over a hairless blind rat, but there ya go….bless her heart, Father. This woman has a heart of gold. Loved seeing their story. 🕊🤍🛐♥️Oh my god. I never would have thought I would be crying over a rat. When she started talking about him in the past I went oh no… Lovely story which has moved me to tears. Thank you for having rescued him and given him a life worth living and all your love. This can also teach everyone of us a lesson :we shouldn t reject people who look different from us and we should be able to look beyond their differences.Bless you Your story brought tears. I worked in a pet store that had rats and experienced the love that they give to people. I helped my Mother rehabilitate hundreds of wild birds, squirrels, raccoons , butterflies and even , once , a Praying Mantis. We would care for and release these creatures whenever possible. When our wildlife friends could not be released, we kept them , loved them, played and cherished them until their natural demise. You are a person who values the worth of “ all creatures great and small”. Cheers to you. You are one of a kind😀 I used to have a rat named “suzie q” but then Suzie Q grew boy parts so he was then called “Sue” aka “a boy named Sue”. He already knew his name so I couldn’t change it. When I would get home, if he already snuck out of my cage, I would get into bed and say “Sue Sue!” And he came running to me every time and would curl up into my lap. It was so endearing and heart warming. Just like other animals, you are their entire world and they never fail to show you how special you are to them! People need to just realize this for themselves instead of going off of what they’ve heard and seen on tv!!We miss you so much, Sue Sue!💕I have had many rats in my days and I found that they rarely live more than 5 to 6 years then they start to develop tumors. I have had to experience putting all of them to sleep. Other than that, they make wonderful pets. They are very clean animals. I used to really enjoy making them “vegetable and fruit salads” for them. As far as their housing is concerned, I used to go to Home Depot or Lowes and purchase the white plastic conduit. It comes in many different shapes and sizes. That way you can get creative and develop a wonderful playscape for them. I would put it all in a large glass fish aquarium. So glad Klunk was given the chance to meet you and find love and acceptance. It’s gut wrenching he had developed cancer, most likely from his broken heart from being abandoned. May his little soul find joy over the rainbow after such a challenging life. Blessings to you for loving him just as he was. He sounds like he was a cutie. How adorable was he, i feel so sad that hes passed away but i feel happy for him that he got alot of love and affection and had a good life with his human mummy. I dont see rats as disgusting they are so cute and clean. I Love all animals, they have as much rites to live on earth as anybody else. Rip cutey xxxx💜
