Mortimer Update





We took the old fat rat to the vet yesterday. We were worried as he's lost weight and use of his back legs is declining. However it looks to be muscle loss that explains the weight loss. Not much we can do to help him. We've got some human herbal pills for arthritis and but it's really a case of trying to make the cage suitable for a low level level living. The vet said to make him move still but he needs a surface with grip. He seems happy enough and certainly is still eating or drinking properly.
