I love our hamster, Holiday, and I know other people who love their rodent friends. This is such a sweet story!
"Our daughter, Greta, has long adored her pet rats. Sadly, they don't live long, and we thought this would be a wonderful way to remember one of her favorites. Her first rat, Haret, had died, and we had been looking for someone to join the remaining duo. There was a teacher at Greta's school that raised pythons - and also raised their meals. We were able to save one tiny ball of fur from its intended fate. Here's the journal entry from April 21, 2015.
Greta turns 8 AND a new rat comes home to live at our house. She's smaller than Greta's hand - 2 weeks old. She had already set Monty and Loowy down to explain what it meant to be a big brother. "I started crying on the way home. She's my dream rat. She has Monty's nose and Loowy's ears. I am going to name her Dreamy."
