Skuld December 26, 2003 - August 22, 2005

Skuld, the alpha rat, is ruler of our little group of 5. Along with her sisters Urd and Verdandi as well as two friends, Ischtar and Lilith, she joined us on April 20th, 2004. Skuld is already a mother and a born leader. She is the athlete of the group. Very agile and fearless she dares to boldly go where no rat has gone before. Sadly, Skuld has left us. She suffered a stroke or the beginnings of a pituitary tumor. Altho she seemed to recover quite well and was enjoying every minute of her life for weeks after the incident, she peacefully died during the night. Skuld apparently died quickly and did not suffer. I miss my beloved Skuld. Farewell, girl, I will never forget you.

Skuld's quirks:

	Gardener. She was the first one to climb the plant barriers.
	Has developed into a cage potato.
	Loves to stash, but not to run.
	Gave up her alpha status for food.
	Our squishiest rat, but altho a bit shy, really friendy.
	Loves to lick hands.
