RIP Bo

My sweet, old girl Bo was put to sleep on Saturday after having a stroke.  She was in the wars after having a tumor removed and then she got mites which gave her a bacterial infection.

Bo was my only rat who ever bit me on more than one occasion! :)  She definitely liked her own space and didn't like being moved.  She was always an explorer when she was younger, unlike Bella who would never come out of the cage until after about 3 months.

Towards the end we couldn't get Bo out of the cage very often, she loved to sleep and chill out in her hammock and looked after the other babies when they were born.  She was my grumpy old girl and I will miss her.

Rest in Peace Bo Bo.

R.I.P Jade

I wasn't a major Jade Goody fan or anything but she died today and thats sad.  Mainly because she has left 2 children behind and its Mothers Day but also because she is the same age as me and that makes me think.  I know 1000's of people die everyday/week from cancer but when its shoved in your face all over the T.V and in the media I can't help but think "shit that could be me" so rest in peace Jade and I hope woman everywhere save their own life and get checked because of you.
