Rutherford was helped to the bridge today. He was always an engaging gentle giant. I adopted him and 3 boys from a member of our rat forum. He was preceded in death by Chupachup and Billy and is survived by Harold.
His favorite thing to do was chill in a hammock or be pet under his chin. He'd been looking rather frail the last 3 days and this morning when I went in he was kind of quiet. When I went back in later today he was in distress and obviously ready to go.
He was 34 months old.
He's been prepared for private cremation at the Oregon Humane Society.
Rest in peace little one.

So very sorry. :( He lived a long life.
I'm so sorry that you've lost Rutherford, but congratulations for helping him live to such a fantastic age! x
