You know your guests have settled in when they become your shoulder buddies 🥰
These 2 gorgeous girlies have snuggled in my hood, had little nibbles of my ear and gave lots of whisker tickles 😍

The girlies are back for their holiday 🥰 A few new additions I haven't met before and they're gorgeous 😍
I love watching them settle in and find their favourite sleeping places 😴🥰

My precious boy Elmo 🌈💔

No one could ask for a more peaceful passing, snuggled in a hammock surrounded by buddies and drifting off into a forever sleep but finding you this morning, I feel like my world has shattered 💔

There seriously aren't enough words to explain how special you were ❤️
The day we met, you were my teeny tiny fluffy 5 week old with the biggest character and the best smile! I loved you from the moment I laid eyes on you and we bonded instantly ❤️
There will honestly never be another like you. You had the most perfect personality, from you're crazy popcorning to sitting in my hands and licking my fingers whilst I sang 'our' song. You were the most loving boy anyone could ask for and my heart is breaking knowing I will never get one of our special hugs again 💔

I've had so many ratty losses this year but somehow I managed to get through them because of you. Just seeing your beautiful smile, getting the biggest hug and watching you play seemed to make things easier.
2 years and 2 months of you in my life, 2 years and 2 months of making special memories with you but I wish I'd given you one last cuddle before bed or that you'd given me a sign that last night would be the last time I would watch you running to me or the last time I'd get to sing out song during freeroam 💔

You and Cosmo were always my go to whenever people said they hated rats and you both showed them how amazing you really are. The way you snuggled into them and changed their views was incredible!!
I knew when this day came that it would destroy me but I didn't think it was going to happen any time soon 😢
My heart will always be broken and there will never be another that can replace our special love and bond!!
I will love you and miss you forever my precious boy ❤️
Sweet Dreams my one and only Elmo 🌈❤️

My sweet boy Ludo 🌈💔
I'm lost for words as this was so unexpected and doesn't feel real 😢
I know you have suffered Uri's right from day one but you bounced back every time! This time though, your precious little heart just couldn't take it 💔
For you I'm glad it was sudden so you didn't have to suffer but for me it was a huge shock and I didn't expect it!!
The moment I saw you sitting there looking up at me, I knew I had to adopt you and bring you home. I was told you were 12 weeks but you were teeny tiny and I fell in love with you straightaway!
I have loved every second of you being here and love the fact that your favourite place was to sit on my lap or snuggle inside my fleece. You have never been the most confident but it was an absolute pleasure watching you flourish and knowing that I was your safe place.
Seeing your beautiful face everyday warmed my heart and filled it with love and happiness 💕
You were honestly the most perfect friend to all of the others, past and present and were always the first to comfort and snuggle them so I know you will be deeply missed by them too ❤️
You will never be forgotten and one day I hope to be able to remember our precious moments without tears in my eyes 😢
Love you forever beautiful boy!
Sweet Dreams my gorgeous Ludo 🌈❤️

My sweet sweet boy Cosmo 🌈❤️

Every loss is so painful but my word, I feel like my heart has completely shattered 💔
There will never be another like you!! From the moment I brought you home at 6 weeks old you have always been the most perfect boy in every way. You brightened my days for over 2 years and always made me smile. You gave the best cuddles and filled my heart with love and happiness ❤️
You even had the most perfect heart shape on your chest ❤️
Everyday you'd come running for snuggles before dashing around during freeroam and even from an early age, you'd keep coming back to me for extra cuddles. Your recall and ability to learn tricks were by far the best!!
Because of you there are more people in this world who understand my love for rats! One cuddle from you and they went from hating rats to begging to hold you again!!

You were honestly the most perfect alpha and managed to maintain that role, not through fear but through being the best role model to the others and they will miss you dearly!!
There is so much more I could say about you but there are no words to describe how much this hurts!! 💔
You will forever be in my heart and I will love you for always.
Sweet Dreams my gorgeous boy Cosmo 🌈❤️

My sweet boy Xylo 🌈❤️

I wasn't ready for today and I had no time to prepare myself for a goodbye 😢
To have your life cut so short by a pituitary tumor is absolutely heartbreaking 💔
You were such a beautiful boy and the biggest softy!!
You have brought so much joy and laughter to my life and even though I'm heartbroken, I will always be thankful for every moment we had together 💕
From the moment you arrived, I could see you were going to be so loving but also very cheeky and I wasn't wrong!!
Your games of hide and seek when freeroam had finished and the countless times you stuck your bum out of the hammock and did the biggest wee on me whilst I was cleaning directly below you, were honestly hilarious!!
Even with your silly side you absolutely loved cuddles, sitting on my shoulder and resting on my head 💗
Losing you has come as such a shock and my heart hurts 💔
I love you so much!! Sweet dreams my gorgeous boy Xylo 🌈❤️🌈
