Goodbye Maisy

Thank you to all who visited this blog by my dear rat Maisy. Unfortunately she passed away peacefully on 18/06/12 cuddled into Bert. She was a super little rat with a huge personality and will be sadly missed by all who knew her, especially Bert. The pyometra ontop of the lumps just became too much of a burden on her little body.

R.I.P Maisy We will miss you xxxxxx

Getting better

I'm feeling much better and more active now. Still on the horribly disgusting antibiotic, Septrin. Mummy is really spoiling me with all sorts of yummy food.

Mummy told me my Auntie Lorraine was planning to come visit, so I'm really looking forward to seeing her as I haven't seen her in a very long time and almost never got to see her at all. Mummy doesn't know when she is coming yet as she hasn't had a reply from her for a while. I'll be keeping my fingers and toes crossed that it is soon.

Mummy said that she might take us to the beach one day just as a little treat because of what I have been through and we haven't been anywhere for a while. She might be taking us for a run to Dundee in July. I have a lot of living to do but not much time left to do it in. Not to worry there is still life in the old rat yet. My love for Bert keeps me going <3

Not blogged in a while because I've not been feeling too well. I have pyometra and I'm on Septrin, which DOES NOT taste like banana. My lumps are getting bigger and my legs are getting weaker. Mummy is spoiling me with all kinds of yummy food. I've gone off yoghurt as that was all I could eat for about 3 days. I couldn't move very far at all. Experienced a few baths, which was not fun, but I suppose it had to be done and if it hadn't mummy might never have found out I had the pyometra. She thought I was just slowing down due to old age. Hopefully I've still got a fair bit of living left in me yet, but only time will tell.

Until next time . . .

Not Having Much Luck!!

Well, I'm not doing so well at the moment. I have numerous lumps and the ones on my side are getting bigger. I was on Galastop for a month but it didn't help. Mummy has been talking about sending me back in for one more operation probably in May some time and having an implant placed in me called Suprelorin to see if it will prevent any further lumps from appearing.  Mummy has just found a lump on Daisy today too so I think we may both be getting operated on at the same time. You can see the lumps in the above photo (though I still look very pretty) I'm also starting to suffer from something mummy calls HLD, which means my back legs are getting weaker.
