I love him! <br /> <br /> FYI, if you're in Florida and you're lookin' for a place to skydive, but don't want to leave your pup at home, go check this place out. They let you bring your dog (as long as you can recruit someone to watch your dog while you're skydiving). I brought Taco and everyone loved him.

He didn't want to move, he was laying in his own pee, he wouldn't eat and he wouldn't drink. I was scared witless. I thought that this was the end. He was like this for an hour and he didn't even care when I pried open his mouth to give him a bit of a liquid prednisone mixture. After an hour of being completely listless and dead to the world, he began to snap out of it. Either the prednisone perked him up or something else was going on. My Mom (she's a doctor) pointed out that he might have just had a seizure, which would explain the disorientation, listlessness and not wanting to eat. It's pretty common for pet rats to have brain tumors and sometimes a brain tumor can cause seizures. It all kind of makes sense, but I'm not sure that's what is wrong with him.<br /> <br /> Ernie is perfectly normal today and he's his usual happy self, eating cheerios and blueberries from my hand. He was even doing tricks with me this morning. It was so weird and scary as heck to find him like that yesterday. I know that he's ancient (nearly 3 years old), but it just makes me so sad that he's suffering in some way. He is on a daily liquid prednisone mixture, just in case. If he is sick in some way, it will make him feel better. My poor little man! <br /> <br /> This photo was taken about a year ago. I'm so glad that I took SO many photos of Bert and Ernie over the past few years with them. I am now just getting to the point where I can smile when I look at Bert's photos (he passed away back in October of last year) ♥ Take TONS of photos of your pets.

At least Bert is taking his medication like a CHAMP and I'm not having to force him to take it. He loves it because it has a banana flavoring, thanks to the awesome staff at West End Animal Hospital. I've done a lot of reading on the subject and it's VERY hard to find a vet that actually knows a fair amount about rats. Dr. Cottrell has two rats of her own, plus she's an expert when it comes to ferrets. In terms of medication dosing and other things, rats and ferrets are very similar. When I called and told her that Bert had gotten worse and his front paws were curling, she spent time researching and consulting with her colleagues before calling me back and letting me know that she thought it was a brain tumor (still crossing my fingers that it's not though). I'm SO happy that I was able to find a reliable vet in the area and find one that ACTUALLY cares! So, I'm shouting out a great big THANK YOU to Dr. Cottrell for making this easier on both Bert and I!<br /> <br /> UPDATE: Bert passed away in his sleep today (October 6). I have some incredibly sad news... My baby Bertie Bott just passed away. He lived a month more than was expected and, thankfully, he didn't suffer and he died in his sleep (so, yes, he did have a brain tumor). His brother, Ernie, is doing okay and doesn't really seem to be missing Bert (or doesn't know what's going on), so that's good. I wish I could have been there for him in his final hours, but I'll see him again at the Rainbow Bridge someday ♥ I love you, Bertie Bott, and I will NEVER forget you, my little baby boy. It was the best year and a half I could have ever asked for with you.
