Need help!!!! Sick baby!!!

[nertnie]

I'm so very sorry for your loss.     She was very pretty.  Being so far away, there wasn't much you could do, and you did everything you could.

If we start launching an investigation for every person who breeds feeders for it's reptiles...
I mean, they are treated like feeders, like food by these persons. And they are not against the law, reptiles need to eat too. And animal protections laws are ltteraly ridiculous here in Quebec. We are soooo behind every other civilized countries for this kind of thing.

And like you say Nertnie, I couln't do anything. And it happened so fast. One day she was healthy and playfull and the other, she was so sick...

Sorry to hear things didn't work out with the little girl. At least she's no longer suffering. This is a hard situation to deal with since it was completely out of your hands. You could take the time to report them, I'm sure the spca gets floated with reports on rodent cruelty. Technically you see it in almost every pet store, and there isn't much done about it. You can report this girl and her family and burn your bridge with them and possibly have the spca do nothing about it. It's you're call on what you feel right about doing.

T'es francaise? Bienvenue! Veuillez excuser mon francais execrable, j'suis anglais, mais tres francophile!

J'suis super-triste apres avoir lu cette histoire - la petite rat etait vraiment mignonne! Elle avais de mauvais chance. 

Je vous souhaite le bonheur, continuez avec vos bons efforts pours les rats du Quebec. Ce n'est pas seulement a votre partie du Canada ou on ne sait rien des rats que comme la nourriture pour autres animaux - l'Angleterre se tient aux moyennes ages aussi, tant pis. Il faut toujours lutter pour changer les opinions de ceux qui sont ignorants de la joie que donnent les rats!

Salut!

Est-ce que tout le monde parle français ici?

[AvaAdoreSmashing]

engrish plz

[Ellimac]

Oui je parle français!

En effet, c'est en luttant même lorsque nos actions individuelles ne donnent rien qu'on finit par changer les choses et les perceptions des gens. J'espère que cette histoire fera prendre conscience aux parents de cette jeune fille qu'elle n'est peut-être pas la seule «folle» à aimer les rats, et qu'il y a peut-être une raison à celà.


Now back to english. Sorry. ^____^


Since the trip to the girl's place was already organized and I haven't lost the interest in saving one of these babies life, I've decided to give a chance to an other little rat. I asked the young girl to choose me a healthy and social little girl and that's the lucky one:

She's a cutie.

[Rattieluv]

Awe...she's adorable!!  How old is she in the picture?

[Ellimac]

Now she's about 4½ weeks so I think she was 1 month old when the picture was taken.

She's so pretty. =3
And she's dumbo! And apparently she's big compared to her litter mates and she seems very healthy and social.

Even if the patched one was unlucky, at least one of these babies will be saved. And maybe an other one will be saved actually, because I may bring an other one for someone living on my way to the girl's home.

AWWW LOOK AT THAT LITTLE FACE.

I am in love!!

[Ellimac]

I am too! I'm going to have her next sunday. I wish she'll be healthy! =(
I'm probably going to name her Philomene. ^__^

Look how well she's growing up!









I'm so happy that there's at least one of these babies who's not gonna end up in a snake stomach.

[Kinsey]

That white baby with the cap and blaze looks like they like eachother-you should get that one too xD
