No updates for the past few days because I've... yeah. Well. Long story short: On Tuesday, I had to have one of my rats, Yuki, put down. See, she was the first rat I ever got. She's the first pet I've ever had die. She had a huge mammary tumor on her foreleg, was over 2 years old (which is the average lifespan for a rat), was blind in one eye, and her back legs were no longer working very well.

So while I think it was probably the right thing to do, seeing as she couldn't have been very comfortable, it still hurts like fuck.

I don't want sympathy, I want my Yuki back, and I want her healthy again.
