Unicorn is small but mighty. The four-year-old brown rat, named by his little human sibling, came to Lort Smith with a bulging eye, lethargy and loss of appetite.
Our Unusual Pets and Wildlife Vet, Dr Tristan, found a brain tumour. He removed all of it, along with Unicorn's right eye, which the tumour was attached to.
Unicorn recovered beautifully, and was soon back to his usual affectionate self. His doting family, and their many other pets, helped him heal.
