RIP My beautiful Lola

Had my lovely old lady Lola , put to sleep today aged 2 and a half. She had a nasty pyometra as well as a large lump, and was also having hide leg trouble so I chose to put her to sleep so she didnt suffer. She will be hugely missed by myself and the girls who shared her cage. Lola was very much so the alpha rat, and saw a fair few rats in her life. Her original girls were Venus, Asher, Siouxie and Lily, and after these four were gone , although she had company no other rats really meant as much to her as they did. When Lily died , she withdrew into herself. Her greatest fans were Eden and Jinx who always groomed her, even more so in her last few days.

Now shes gone , there is likely to be a squabble for top rat, I'm honestly not sure who will win this one. Jinx seems too laid back, Eden is bolshy enough. They both have senority on their side. Rogue is more of a follower this could change though. And Rave has the personality but is younger , and also has been showing a softer side. Will be keeping an eye on proceedings.

Lola gave a lot of joy and will be sorely missed. I got her and her sister for a fiver and its one of the best fivers i have ever spent. Sort out the bolshy ones at the rainbow bridge.

RIP My beautiful old lady
