We're back!

...I think. The server issues should be fixed now, so hopefully this post won't disappear. Just in case, I'll keep it short:

We have our fingers crossed that tomorrow will be stitch-removal day for Kanga.

Misto is about the same...not too grunty, and eating, but less than I'd like. I have seen him defend his X-Treme Chocolate Fudge Bite-lette from Arthur, at least.

Leather's leg is healed up, but she seems to be slowing down. She looks and acts very tired, and while she's still eating, she doesn't attack food with the relish she had just last week. Her third birthday is the 11th, so at her age, fading is hardly unexpected...but it is still sad.

Ohana's lump seems stalled again, for now. Though huge, it isn't keeping her down, she just needs a bit of help in and out of the cage.

Jimmy is trying to disprove the myth that rats are highly intelligent. In the time that it has taken me to type this, I've watched him "stash" a dozen pieces of food in the corner of the cage...where it is dropping right through the bars and down to George. This has nothing to do with the health updates, but it is cracking me up.

((hugs)) It is so hard to watch them fade. :( I hope you guys are back online too! Yay for Misto eating a bit more and for Leather and Kanga healing up. Give the ratties hugs for us. :) PS- Jimmy's not figured it out, eh?

Jimmy may be dumb as a post, but he's cute and we love him :~)
