New paintings are up in the shop!!

Grab a masterpiece from Hazel and Frieda, Celeste and Squid Ink, or Rafe while you have the chance!

We are thrilled to report that Shadow's emergency visit on Friday has been covered in full, and we have halved our $2400 deficit, but we are still in the negative by $1200 with three spays (Mel, Emma, and Froggy) and one neuter (Chowder) pending. Now is a great time to start thinking about holiday shopping, so grab a painting or some stickers or toys now!

Shadow update!

Shadow had an emergency visit yesterday to look at her eye. It had been cloudy, and she was seen on Tuesday this week where it was stained to try and identify an injury, but none was found. She was prescribed antibiotic and steroid eye drops, but the next day her eye appeared sunken in with swelling around the socket. Worried about a potential tumor behind the eye, our vet recommended skull rads, which were thankfully unremarkable, but her third eyelid was swollen and irritated. She was prescribed more antibiotics and anti inflammatory eye drops and instructions to keep her in a cone overnight to prevent further irritation. Today the eye is a bit goopy, which more or less confirms an infection. She's being a good little patient, taking her meds and tolerating warm compresses. We are keeping our fingers crossed that our quick intervention will help her recover as quickly and completely as possible.

We currently have a matching donation fundraiser in place! See the pinned post on our profile for more details! Thank you to everyone who has donated for Shadow's emergency care and helped us get our medical fund out of the negative. We appreciate all of you so much!

⚠️⚠️ Help needed! ⚠️⚠️

Hello, everyone. It's hard to be so direct with our fundraising requests, but we are pretty desperate. Donations have been slow this month, our expenses are piling up, and now Shadow is back at the vet today for an emergency visit. She has had a persistent cloudiness in her left eye that we and our vet have been monitoring, and today the eye appears sunken in with swelling around the socket. Our vet is concerned there may be a mass behind her eye.

We have been treading water with an approximately $2000 deficit in our vet fund, and today's visit could easily add another few hundred to that total. An emergency visit runs $155, and skull rads will be another $275, and that's before any potential treatments are considered. We know times are really tough right now and most everyone is struggling. Please take care of yourselves first, but if you have extra to spare, we appreciate it so much. And if you can't, commenting and sharing are so important in helping us reach a wider audience, so please leave a few encouraging words for Shadow (and maybe us humans, too). Thank you for reading!

Nothing is safe from the rats

With Rattober sucking up all our free time, it's been harder to keep up with our regular posting. All the rats are doing well, but all the work and expenses keep coming. This past week we've had nine rechecks, one spay, and about $450 of medication refills. Our medical fund is in the hole by over $2200.

We know how tough it is out there and how uncertain everyone is feeling, and as always, we want everyone to take care of themselves first, but if you do have a little extra to spare, we appreciate every single cent.
