I’m so sorry :( what happend, if you don’t mind me asking?
I don’t have the slightest clue. I put them all in a smaller cage like I usually do when I clean the big cage and they were in there for a while cos I decided I may as well clean the whole bathroom while I’m in the cleaning mood…I came and checked on them and the little one seemed fine, or I don’t know nothing seemed wrong. So I left for a while and came back outside cos it was getting a little cold and she was just sitting there not moving. I was certain she was dead because I got her out and she was just limp and I was moving her around and stuff. I looked closely and she was just breathing. She started to breath more/better when my girlfriend was holding her. It seemed as though her neck was dislocated from her spine, but can that even happen? :\ Her spine like going sideways while her head was still straight so I have no idea… There’s no possible way she could have hurt herself in that tiny cage. She started breathing like Kitty did during her last few days of being alive so I knew she wasn’t going to last. It kind of seemed like there might have been fluid in her lungs, but I couldn’t be sure. There was nothing wrong with her besides a slight sniffle and a few sneezes every now and then but sometimes it can take a few weeks for new babies to get used to there new environment etc. She was literally paralyzed, her eyes weren’t even moving :( She passed very calmly.

You tiny, adorable cute little thing.
The two short weeks you were with me were the shortest two weeks of my life. You challenged me every day, trying to look after a baby so tiny and so bloody energetic. You drove me crazy with your antics but it was so great having you in my family. You settled in straight away and I’m sorry you couldn’t spend a full life with me.
I hope I looked after you the best I could, and I’m sorry I got scared and wasn’t the one to hold you when you finally went over the rainbow bridge. You’ll be safe there and will able to get very fat and play with many other crazy rat babies.
Even though you weren’t with me long you still made a huge impact and I will miss you very much. RIP baby rat x
