thejunipertreeI came home this evening from work, thinking that I was just going to run in to the apartment with Thee Pumpkin Girl, feed all my animals, grab an extra pack of cigarettes, then head out to the art supply store to buy a frame for a rather large Joe Coleman print.
This was not quite exactly how things would pan out.
I found Diablo in the bottom of the cage, lying still and quiet. He was dead. From what, I've no earthly idea because this morning he was acting his usual, stand-offish self, except for a brief scratch behind the ears before he got down to his morning ritual of emptying the food dish.
I don't know what caused this or when, but he was still pliable when I found him and only beginning to grow cold in some spots.
My poor boy.
He may not have been the most affectionate of rats, but he was a good boy (even that one time when he bit me, I had it coming).
