Elvis has left the building

May 27, 2013 - This afternoon I had Elvis put to sleep. After seeing him slowly deteriorating the last couple of months, this morning I decided it was enough. He and his pal Dino are the oldest rats since my first rats Chester & Casey, and, although Elvis may not have been in good shape anymore, he was still more or less in good health, so I guess I should count my blessings. Still, he wil be sorely missed.
