Baxter Batman Steve Louie John Thelin

At approximately 8:00 am on Thursday the twentieth of December 2012, Baxter Returned to our heavenly father, where he met with Pacino and Guster. Baxter was constantly on the move, he didn't want to be tied down, he wanted to explore and see what the world was about. We didn't pick Baxter out, he picked us out. When we arrived at the pet store he was the rat who ran to us while the others scurried away. Baxter was the kindest and most loving rat we have known, with in seconds of meeting someone he would be licking and loving them. Baxter has been a guardian over our family, and will continue to do so. His favorite thing to do was climb up to the highest perch and lookout over the room keeping a watch on us all. Baxter reveled in our company, he wanted to be with us every hour of every day. If by chance you passed his caged he would bound up to the ledge by the door and wait for you to pull him out, and no one could say no to that. When doing homework he would curl up as close as he could to you and then get closer, he would then lay there for hours. Baxter comes from a famous family, his parents where the rats pulled out of the house in L.A. California shown on A&E's Hoarders. It was his city rat mentality that kept him strong and fighting until the end, as in Dylan Thomas' famous poem Do not go gentle into that good night
