Raz was my stepson's birthday gift 3 years ago along with her cagemate Spaz. Raz was a white rat with a light grey hood and was rather spoiled as well. She lived a great and fulfilling life, well filling herself up on the good food we gave her. So now Spaz is left wondering where Raz went, I was surprised how matter of factly my stepson was on telling me Raz was dead.
So RIP Raz 08.25.06
It's a shame ya lost Raz, terrible losing pets 
I had 2 white rats as a kid, SweetPea and Daffodil, they were the nicest girls, then both got gigantic tumors, hard for a kid to handle, so I know the hurt well. It's also sad that Rats only live such a short span of 3 - 4 years.
Hope you guys feel happier soon !

I'm sorry, not nice when they leave like that. Good thing your step-son was so matter-of-fact about it, its not nice to see little ones upset over a bereavement, seems he took it better than Spaz did though
