Pictures of Mercapto

I'm sorry to say that my pet rat, Mercapto, died on Friday. He apparently choked on a piece of orange. I thought it would be a good time to (finally) scan in the rat pictures I've been meaning to scan and put them up.

This is Mercapto at my parents' house around Christmas time, 1998. Posing for the camera as usual. He wasn't actually as fuzzy as this picture makes him look. That's more my bad camera skills.

At home on his aquarium. He would climb his ladder and walk around on the top of his cage.

Here is Mercapto in a shoe, holding a cracker, looking warily at Rascal. If Rascal knows what's good for her she won't try to steal that cracker.

Ok, ok, if you've seen my bike pictures page you know this is a re-run. This is Mercapto in a shoe. Mercapto always liked to go in things, whether it was boxes, bags, or shoes.
