Emily


Emily the Rat died on April 25th. She was euthanized because she had at least 3 tumors, one of which was inoperable and probably cancerous, and was unable to walk, groom or eat normally.

It was absolutely heartbreaking.

Emily in 2008, drinking mango juice out of a bottle cap.



The last photo of Emily, a few days before she died, curled up in her little house.


This seems like a good time to point out just how much I love this cat, Lilah.


She hangs out in the garden like a jungle cat.


She tolerates our affections.

And she really, really knows a good sunpatch when she sees one.

Lilah also miaos along with Maita as the latter sings and plays the piano.
