This picture is of the first pet I had after I moved out into the world. We found this guy at the pet store in the feeder rat bin (for snakes and such for those who don't know what that is) and we decided to rescue him so he didn't become snake chow. We named him Brian and he lived with us for 3 years before he died, we suspect of some sort of cancer. He was an amazing companion and we loved him dearly.
But now I'm all feely and such, so I'm going to wrap this up. This was my Throwback Thursday, and I would love it if you shared yours as well. Til next time!
Hey Danielle! What's the Throw Back Thursday? B/c I dont quite understand. hit me back.
ReplyDeleteBasically, you just take something from your past and share it with your readers. Kind of a way to gradually get to know each other.
DeleteAww it reminds me of Bert the Squirrel whom my grampa and I rescued as a newborn after his mother died. Bert died a month later :(
ReplyDeleteOh, that's so sad. It's very difficult to care for critters that are so young. I grew up in the country and tried to save newborn critters (bunnies, squirrels, etc.) a few times, and it didn't ever work out well for me. :(
DeleteAw he was gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! He was HUGE and very happy. :)
DeleteAw he's cute! :) I also had mine 3 years ago but died when I lived in the city for awhile.He must've missed me. :D :(
ReplyDeleteBy the way,I followed you on GFC.I hope you follow back. :)

P.S. I'm planning to do series in my blog.Do you mind if add a Throwback Thursday?You just gave me an idea.hehe
Thanks! And it's so sad that rats don't have a longer life span, they are such great pets.
DeleteThanks for the follow, I'm following you as well. And go ahead and use the Throwback Thursday in your blog. It's quite a bit of fun and a great way to give your readers some insight to your life.
Brian was the best name choice! It looks like it suited him. :) My first pet was a hamster that I called Woody because he lived in woodchips. Obviously, not the most age-appropriate name. Haha!
ReplyDeleteThe name suited him ridiculously well. :) And I think Woody is a great name for a hamster, age-appropriate or not, haha.
DeleteAmazing pet, I know :) I also had one a long time ago.. She died when she was only two.. :(

They are so wonderful, I would like another but I think my cats would have an issue with me moving a rodent into the house. It's so sad that they don't live longer, they're great pets.
DeleteThey are very clever pets. But it should be difficult to have rodent and cat at the same place :)
DeleteYes it should. And my orange kitty makes sure that no rodents get past the threshold. :)
DeleteAw, what a cutie pie! :)

I'm so glad that we saved him, he had a good life with us.

I wish I could have any pet.. I miss my cat that I had to leave back in Lithuania :(
ReplyDeleteOh, that's terrible. Having to leave a pet behind is one of the worst things ever. :(
