PocketAngels' Mascots
Boggie & Nic
We are honored that Boggie and Nic are our mascots. Through them, we learned to love a lot stronger, to do more when we think we can't, see a little more clearly, listen a little better, search a little harder and to find the absolute best in everything we do and everyone we meet.
They were and are the greatest of inspirations to us and it is in their names that we continue to do the good that we do.
When you meet a person that completely changes your life and makes you want to be a better person, it's rare indeed; When that 'person' is an animal, its an amazing thing..without a doubt. And when that animal is a rat, well, you know that you've finally 'arrived'.
I am a better person BECAUSE of THEM.
Thank you, my boys - it was an HONOR to know you ,to learn from you, & to love you.
We'll see you at the bridge, guys. We love you.

Nicodemus (Nic-a-boo)
Nicodemus, our grumpy yet handsome old man & heart rat. Nic-a-boo had a hard start in life; at 5 weeks old he broke his leg in a rat ball (we didnt know better, though we quickly learned). He learned to trust and love us during the healing process. We fell in love with his incredible spirit, his sweetness and even his grumpy old man ways. Nic was the first. He was and is beloved and will be missed always.

Boggles (Boggie)
Boggie. Boggie wasnt just my heart rat, he was my heart. I miss him everyday. I never knew that such greatness could come in such a small, conceited package! Boggie's personality could NOT be denied. If he was not getting the attention that he thought he should have then he would reach FAR outside the cage to pull you in by the shirt. Since he knew he owned me, he would sit by the cage and do this odd bird-sounding warble thing until I would come get him. Boggie was the Original PocketAngel. He is missed and love dearly.
