Choking

Apparently, along with peanut butter and cheese, ratties are also not supposed to have bread. These foods can lead to choking, as we found out with Stella just now. We knew there was a special way to heimlich ratties, so we went online and found it here. Fortunately, by the time we were ready to start doing the Rattie Fling, Stella had taken care of herself. They say ratties don't have gag reflexes, but we just watched Stella dislodge the bread by throwing it up. The moral of the story? Take warnings about foods to avoid seriously!
