In Which Our Heroine's Rat is A+ Fine

 
Ayup! They took out the mass, and now he's fine and dandy. I took pictures of the surgical cut, but I decided that you guys didn't want to see it.

Unless you do, in which case I'll post them.



I maybe sort of needed to use my flash and didn't.






This is right before he bit Murphy. I keep thinking that maybe Murphy will learn, but no. He never does.


Speaking of Murphy, awwwww! He's really not this innocent and sweet. He's such a douchebag.


In fact, he doesn't like you one bit, that douchebag.


This is an old one of Malachi, but I love it. HE IS SO ADORABLE HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THAT LITTLE ASSHOLE?


The surgery was $100 less than I thought it was going to be. Which was awesome. And he's doing completely fine. Down to attacking the cat if the cat tries to get near him. Which the cat does a lot. Because the cat is stupid. He is being rather cuddly, which I'm totally okay with. (The cat, however, is wicked friggin' pissed, because now I'm not cuddling him as much.)

Okay, back to watching bad TV shows.

THAT'S WHAT THE PHOTO'S TITLED ON MY FLICKR!

If I leave any on my bed, he'll dash up, grab an entire piece, and drag it back into his cage. He's got away with an entire half of a pizza once.

It was terrible. I had to throw it out. :(

What kind of tumor did he develop? (I don't mind gory pictures at all.)

Oh god, I don't remember. They were like "We removed the [big sciencey word] and now let's go into great detail about how to give him medication even though you've done it before and it's the exact same process." and I was too busy going "omg I have a doctor appointment I gotta go hurry up and finish talking D:" to remember the big sciencey word.

Plus, I didn't get it biopsied.

The pizza shot is PRICELESS. Here's to a swift recovery!

(Also: awwww, tabby! ♥)

Thanks! That's the first shot that made me understand what people actually mean when they say you get 1 good picture out of every bazillion pictures.

(Isn't he adorable?!?! He's also a douchebag, but I forgive him because he's so cute.)
