Black possum velveteen dumbo
Though born on tax day, Matisse was anything but taxing to spend time with. This little teddy bear of a fellow was sweetly shy and gently endearing. He was always a great colony rat and was always so accepting and gentle with all his cagemates, young and old. Matisse came to us from Zephyr Rats all the way in Michigan, thanks to Sarah of Lone Star Rats. He was a good little traveller but seems overall to prefer the hammocky comforts of home. He produced some gorgeous children with CWR Min and was a lovely father figure for the younger boys in his cage. His dearest and oldest friend Stoju misses him terribly as do we all here.

feast.
Needless to say, that went into the wash shortly thereafter. |
