The other week Keaton choked on some rice, it was pretty serious but he’s a-okay now. It was just very very scary for all of us, especially my poor baby. He was all swollen after, his face was so round and puffed up and he was so exhausted the poor darling. Chaplin was rubbing against him and making sure he was okay the whole time, what a good brother.

As far as I can remember I have always loved rats and any rodent people would call “pest”. When I first got pet rats, I was thrilled to discover they were so clean, smart and affectionate, very far from the nasty dirty rat myth most people believe in. Thus, I decided to rescue and foster abandoned and abused rats until I could find them a forever home. This led me to take pictures of them: finding a home to a rat is not an easy task since they suffer from a very bad reputation and I had to make their cute personalities stand out so people would consider adopting them.

My favourite thing about this video is that someone reblogged it and tagged it as ‘cat’

French photographer Diane Özdamar shoots wonderfully kawaii photos of pet rats in effort to help counter the negative associations many people have with them. So great is Özdamar’s love and appreciation for rats that she also rescues and fosters abandoned rats and hopes that her photos will help them find forever homes.

“Here are some of these photographs, both of my rats and of my friends’ rats and, as you may see, they are far from being dirty nasty little monsters! They are actually highly intelligent social beings that love interacting with each other and their favorite humans. They are very friendly, smart, playful, they love cuddles and are very clean: many rat owners agree to compare them to tiny dogs.

I made all the little accessories (except for the little black hat) so these wouldn’t constrain the rats: they could remove them very easily, although they didn’t bother most of the time as they were quite cool and relaxed. No animals were harmed during the making of these pictures, the ladybug was also alive and well and flew away soon after the photo shooting.”

Ollie dying has been so surreal. Like it was so fucking sudden that I’m still like processing it? Like I’ve been crying but like I can also laugh about it and feel happy even though I almost cried on the bus today lol

I’m burying him on Friday or Saturday though, which I’m happy for. And I want to thaw him at least a bit maybe before I put him in the ground, cuz touching when he was frozen solid did NOT feel good. I hated it. I don’t mind the stiffness of death but like freezer frozen was too much for me.

Last night I lost my very fluffy baby, my Rollie pollie Ollie, my lil Olliepop 💛

it was very sudden, I didn’t think I’d be making a post like this for at least a few months. In the morning I changed their water, I saw him drinking, perfectly normal, after working all day in the kitchen I come back to my baby gone. It’s partially set in, I don’t know if I already miss him, but I spent a good amount of time with his body, I didn’t want to stop looking at him. he was cutest little bastard I ever laid eyes on, had the softest fur, and he gave me so much love. Melting when I pet him, licking and kissing my fingers, I love this big boy, I always will. Goodbye my baby 💛💐
