Prier pour Baxter

When I cleaned the boys’ cage today, I noticed that Baxter was thin, cold, anemic, and weak. He’s dying. He’s been a member of this family longer than any other pet rat, and it’s a shame that he’s going to die. Cause of death? A spider bite on his face that became infected. If you believe in God or pray, please pray that he doesn’t suffer long. He and his cage-mate were Christmas presents to my daughter the last Christmas she was in the family. I’m sure Seth will die shortly after his cage mate, since they’ve lived together for a year and a half.

I cleaned his wound, but I was too late. The infection seems to have gotten the better of him, and he’s slowly slipping away. I only hope that he does not suffer for long.
