My rats probably did a better job at dragging me out of my depression than any medication or therapy. They are the reason I live, they are the reason I'll never commit suicide and whenever I feel bad, I cuddle them and play with them.

How can you not smile at a face like this:

I am not always happy but I can always make them happy. They are all abandonned, unwanted, handicapped rats that would have been pts. I give them a forever home.

When they die or I have to have them put to sleep because vet care can no longer help them, sure I feel horrible and it hurts, but I try to look at the whole picture. I get a week of feeling crappy in exchange for 2 to 3 years of feeling super happy. Seems like a good deal to me.
