All good things come in threes

Picture

October 7, 2007 - Today my eldest two boys have turned 3 whole years, a truely great age for a couple of rats. I mean, 3 years, that's about 90 human years... Wow! A few months back, when Chester's hind legs got worse and Casey had a tumour, I didn't think they would ever make it this far. And now look at them! It's true, you can really tell they are almost beyond old, but I see no reason why they can't stay with me a little while longer. Days, weeks, perhaps even months, who knows.

To celebrate their 3rd birthday, Chester & Casey threw a big party. First there was a preparty yesterday afternoon on the couch, to which only a small crowd of insiders (Dylan, Pancho, Lefty and me) was invited. Chester had also invited their old pal Mink who he hadn't seen for quite a while, but Mink didn't show up nor did he send a card or something. :-? I had to leave early to prepare their "birthday cage", where the real party began early yesterday evening. Unfortunately Lefy had to return to the hospital right after the preparty, but the others partied on until the wee wee hours of the morning. After little sleep more guests arrived today: my sister and her son, and later on my mother and stepfather. And my father called from Madeira to congratulate both birthday boys.

Well, as they say, all good things come in threes, So here's three ringing cheers for Chester & Casey, and for their sister Miep, and also for their sisters and brothers who haven't made it (Cassie, Cato, Carli, Coco, Chanel, Amor, Pucca, Chapatti, Chai, and last but not least Cappy): Hurrah, hurrah, hurray!

Everyone who has sent Chester & Casey birthday wishes (by e-mail, in the guestbook, on alt.pets.rodents.rats, or at Blogger: Thank you so much! :-D
