Rat sitter wanted.

spring break is coming up and Robert thought that would be the perfect time to take a little trip to vegas for a few days.
one thing that you should do as a pet owner is to see if you have a sitter for your pets first before anything else and of course that's not what happened in our case.

I have a really hard time getting excited about this knowing that right now we don't have a rat sitter. we didn't want to ask Jamie since she'll be having her baby very soon and that's just too much.

I don't really know who else would make a good candidate.
I don't want just anyone to watch my ratties for me. I want someone who actually cares about animals and doesn't mind rats. (and I guess experience is always a bonus)
I really can't see myself allowing someone who has no compassion towards animals watching them for us while we're gone. we'll be gone for 2 nights but our friend (who is going with us) isn't even leaving her cats alone for that time so I don't think I should have to leave the rats alone either.

what if it's hot? who's gonna make sure they're not having a heatstroke? :/

a lot of people I know have cats and that's obviously a bad thing in this case.
I guess we could always have someone just swing by our place every day while we're gone and feed them and make sure they have what they need.

I have 2 more weeks to figure it out.
I'm sure it'll work out somehow.
I'm just kinda worried right now and I can't excited about this until it's been taken care of.


ps. nixon just stole my math test because it was on the floor. she's trying to run around with it and it just looks ridiculous. a small rat with a gigantic compendium of paper in her mouth.
