Missing Roo
It's hard to walk into the rat room and not see Roo's head pop up in greeting. She was always curious and loving and eager to crawl onto my shoulder when I took her out of the cage.
In the waiting room at the e-vet four days ago I cuddled with her and she crawled up toward my shoulder. She didn't quite make it all the way, so I cupped my hand over her to hold her in place. Abita asked if I had my cameraphone; I didn't and she didn't have hers. I turned around and I saw why she wanted a camera--in the reflection Roo was curled on my shoulder, her head against my neck.
See ya later, sweetie.
