Been out shopping and have stocked up on avocados, corn on the cob, coconut milk, baby food and eggs - hopefully I can find something to tempt Merlin into eating enough that I am not worrying all the time

Blimey, sounds like the littles man's been through the wars! Glad to hear that hes coming out the other side too though.

I was just watching I'm a celeb (yeah yeah) but there was some proper rat cruelty going on! it made me so bloody angry!

Ooh, I've only just seen this. Hope Merlin is doing better (and eating) now, and hope the wine went down well too.

Watched the celeb thing a couple of years ago and they did celeb laying in a box with rats and I pointed out that the rats were probably a million times for scared than the celeb :/ They're probably dosed up on something too just to make sure they don't start biting.

Merlin has his check up appointment Thursday at 5:45pm.

He is back in the main cage now and seems happier - is even eating a little bit more but still not as much as he was.

The degeneration in his back legs is becoming more obvious even giving him the Senior Aid. Planning on making a few more alterations to the cage in order to help get around because his recent stink alone in the hospital cage has shown me that he has gone from being an anti-social rat, to getting really lonely if he is away from his cage buddies for more than a day

He needs walking sticks

I hope all goes well at the vets.

RE the celeb. thing.
Even if they are drugged up it's so cruel, Biggins had one on his sheet and he just flicked the sheet and sent the rattie flying

Poor Merlin! I hope he's ok.

And i cannot stand im a celeb. appalling people! Only reason to watch it in my opinion is for Gemma whats-her-name... ;p

How can they jusitify treating animals like that on live(ish) TV?
