I've been waiting for a post like this one to show up on any of my dashes for a long time now. Rats are, and forever will be, my favorite animal. They are the sweetest thing and they will grow on you like a seed in the ground. Care for it and you might get a tree! My first pet rat, Sofie, was literally the only one to keep me company when I had it at my worst. She always came to say hello in her cage and looked at me when I spoke to her; even looking like she understood and felt sad for my sake.  

They are smart, they are caring and the only negative thing about them is their short life spawn. 

Thank you for sharing this story and may Amy rest in peace, seeing a loved one go is hard but at least they changed something with their lifes.

I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF YOU WOULD TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS.

Hi! See this precious baby? Her name is Amy, she’s a hooded rat, and she’s almost three years old! Her birthday is on January 2nd. Anyway, most rats only live about 2-3 years (at least the one’s I’ve had), so she’s approaching the end of her road. She’s been the most perfect little girl I could ask for, but this weekend she got very sick. A tumor has developed and rapidly grown in her stomach and she’s losing a lot of weight (if you were to run a hand down her back, you could easily know where her spine, ribs, shoulder blades and such are, and every little joint in her spine is easy to feel). She’s not moving around as much, only shifting to get more comfortable, and she’s stopped eating and drinking almost entirely. I’ve been hand feeding her for days just so she’ll eat something.

I went to school on Monday (yesterday) after a long weekend of caring for her. I was up all nights with her and got five hours of sleep since Thursday night, and I was running on fumes.

So I go to school and my best friend asks what’s bothering me. I told her that Amy was sick and I was worried about her. She hugged me and said it’d be okay. Then a few other people asked me why I seemed upset. I told them my pet rat is sick and probably dying and I can’t do anything to help her. They gave me weird looks and asked me the one thing I will never forget:

"Why the fuck do you care about a stupid, useless rat?”

And it stung.

It stung because this rat is one of my best friends. When I got her as a baby she was hesitant to trust me but over time grew to trust and love me, and I did the same for her. She grew up being showered with my love and affection and I love her so much still. So when people ask me why I care about a “stupid, useless rat”, I don’t. I don’t care about a stupid useless rat. I care about my friend.

I’m sick and tired of people giving rats shit for being disgusting and dirty and stupid. They aren’t. They’re absolutely wonderful creatures that need just as much (if not more) love and attention as any other pet. I’m not saying all rats are good, as ones like sewer rats can carry diseases and be violent, but domesticated rats like Amy pose no more threat than a chihuahua.

Everyone I’ve met that has gotten to know Amy or Lily (her adopted sister, who sadly died at one year old) or Tara (the first rat I ever owned, she died at three in 2011) has fallen in love with them completely. Even my stepmom, who was previously terrified of rats, absolutely adores her. They are absolutely sweet pets that are intelligent and have emotions and just want to be loved.

So all that said, I want there to be a change. I want people to understand that this isn’t the age of the plague, this is fucking modern day Earth and we really should have grown past this stereotype that rats are filthy, disgusting pests, because they’re not all like that. Most of them aren’t, and I’m tired of my little friend, my little Amy, taking unnecessary shit for a stereotype that isn’t her fault.

Amy is reaching the end of her road. Before she leaves me forever, I want the world to know the name of the little rat that changed my life. Who knows, if enough people see this post and agree with me or possibly even change their views, maybe she’ll be the rat that changes the lives of a million more rats that are just as misjudged as her.

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this.

UPDATE: Amy died on November 20, 2013 at 4:15 pm; one day after this post was created. I hope a few people have learned something from this post, and I hope she’s made an impression on a few people. As much as it hurts, I’m glad she’s not suffering anymore.

"I wish I could meet a guy that great! They are out there, somewhere", she laughed lighty at her compliment. "Thank you, you still look just as stunning too!" 

"Oh yeah, I'm sorry about that. I should have told more people about it, but it kind of slipped my mind. I met this guy some years back and my life hasn't really been the same since." She shook her head. "...but we're not dating or anything, we're just friends. Then I'll be sure to swing by sometimes soon, I want to meet this lucky man of yours! You still got the same phone number, right?"

"Yeah he’s a lawyer and he is awesome." she laughs." Well you haven’t changed you are still beautiful.." 

" Yeah I sent you and invite but you must of moved. Yeah that’s how it’s going to be. You can come visit when ever you want also.." She smiled at her.

"As long as you got the power it should be safe! You seem to have a great relationship at least, that's great to hear", she replied. "What a relief! Who knows, people do change oppionion?" 

"Oh! I missed your wedding! Damn it! I bet you looked stunning!" She covered her mouth with her right hand as she let out a gasp. "That's beautiful names, I like all of them. I guess you know which one to pick once you see the baby? I'm gonna send him a toy or something once he's borned."

" I know but I’m getting huge.." She sighed." But I can eat and eat and I make my husband do everything." She smiled." You should know by now nothing you do could annoy me."

" Well I went to college and fell in love with a lawyer and we got married and I got pregnant. It’s a boy and we were thinking of Mason,Jace, and Liam…"

[sorcellerie-et-nouvelles-blog]

"They usually do that! Only good thing about being pregnant!" She answered with a soft giggle. "Oh, I can? People always seem to get annoyed when I start asking too much..."

"What have you been up to since last time I saw you? Do you know if it's a boy or a girl? Thought about any good names?" 

" I’m good.. The baby is good even though He makes me eat all the time." She chuckles and sees she has so many question." Go ahead ask your questions…"
