I had a friend check into some of the vets in our area and not a one will spay a rat. "not worth it and there's no health benefits!", was what she was told.
So...any other suggestions? Tara is doing fine but i think i am going to really have to think about the time soon. She doesnt seem like she's in pain but that tumor in front of her back leg is getting so large that it drags on the ground. i just don't know when it's time, she doens't tell me that she hurts. I sure wish aninals could speak to us in a way that we could understand them. i really know i need to really think about having her put down. i will be with her and i will also have them give her an anesthetic before doing the shot. i don't want her to feel any pain!! i am not going to like doing this!
