OK, so Urn and Wembles both have abcesses, for different reasons of course. Well I was checking them out this afternoon and Urns pretty much looked ready to explode *insert gagging noises here* Took Urn into the bathroom, turned on some warm tap water and put him under it, the abcess is on his back, near the hip area, pretty easy to soak. Well it literally blew apart *gag some more*. Now if you have never had the pleasure of dealing with abcesses, count your blessings for that kids. This thing was full of what looked to be split pea soup with a side of cottage cheese.

Both boys are going to see the vet tomorrow afernoon. I’m having Wembles’ abcess lanced and drained and making sure Urns’ is all cleaned out. I’m sure both will get a nice course of abs for their troubles.

Have I said how much I love rats and all the joys they bring? LOL
