Quick update on the chius. I adopted a baby recently, nicknamed mini bai for now. She’s born a day before my birthday which makes her extra special.
Just few weeks ago, Hei gave me a really bad scare. She started to refuse food and became lethargic. Rushed her to the vet to find out that she had fluid in one side of the lung, in which the prognosis ain’t favorable if it doesn’t clear with the medication. Thankfully the med worked, but I already shed so much tears by then.
Worried that Hei might be too sick to recover, I also went to find new rat for Bai in the event of worst case scenario. I won’t want her to be alone when she grieves. Luckily that day, someone posted about having a weaned litter and she had one girl left, so I picked up Mini Bai that Friday. Hei already recovered by then and was actively disturbing her through the cage. Started intros one week later and it seems well. They’re now living in the same cage and sorting out their hierarchy so there’s lots of dominance behavior but I’m sure the baby is fine. She’s still following Heibai around like a little 小跟班.
We’re moving to the new house over the weekend, which meant that Heibai will finally get an upgrade and live in the critter nation, the cage I always wanted to get for them. They deserved to retire in happiness after bringing me so much joy.
Anyway, another quick update, I’m pretty much over the dude with absolutely no negative weird habit. Yay to not jumping back into dating apps. Sure, maybe someday I’ll hit him up again because career connections are important but for now eh, screw him. No hatred here though, just a bunch of expired sadness. I guess if you can get over a long time crush, you can get over any dude in a short period of time. 😐 It also helps that when you lose interest in one, you start to realize you’re actually surrounded by multiple better and single guys lmao but nobody needs to know this 😌🤫
