Visit to the vet
May. 11th, 2007 01:48 pmVet says the rats have lice. Which is a good thing, because it's not ringworm, and people can't get rat lice. They're species specific, so we can play with them and not worry about getting anything. And they got medicine squirted on their necks, so the lice will die.
It's good we can play with them again, cause Nathan's been wanting to pet them. He says they're growing on him. My grandma says I shouldn't take them to the vet, I should just flush them down the toilet. I don't know, they're a little big for the toilet, they might need a plunger to get them down.
The rats themselves were of course, not impressed with the visit to the vet. More, it seemed, because it fell in the middle of their nap time, than anything else. Right in the vet's office, Aristotle's huddled in the back of the cage, eyes closed, didn't even seem to want to open them as I tried to drag him out. Poor guy.
