Her time may be almost up....

My bella baby is so cute! I love looking at her sweet little critter body and feeding her in my hand; I also enjoy watching others do the same. The other day though, I noticed that she was looking a little tired, a little worn out, and just not her normal self. She has the look of a dieing critter actually...a little skinny, clumping hair...and A TUMOR! **TEAR**

I thought she look very strange one night because she was all wet, and was sleeping in a very unusual place...so I went over to give her a pep talk, and noticed that something was really wrong. Upon further inspection, I noticed that she had a strange lump sticking out from her tummy....I tore the tube maze down immediately, got a wet washcloth and cleaned her off. Turned her on her belly and got a little sick....the last two pictures are the shots I was able to get of her tumor in her new sleeping area......poor bella....I hope to make whatever time she has left to live happy and comfortable.

So sad. I had two mice once. Molly and Missy. Missy died, and Molly started eating her. I was really traumatized. I didn't really like Molly so much anymore after that. Later, Molly developed a tumor and died. Even though I didn't play with her anymore, it was still so sad to watch her tumor grow and her suffer. I know what you're going through. Sort of...
