It's a dark day.
We were so close.
Those of you who have been following the naked mole rat saga will know just how sad this is. If you haven't, you can catch up here or here.
From Vickie:
Well, there’s no better way to put this… there are no rubber naked mole rats to be had.Maria from Dan’s Crafts and Things called me this weekend to tell me she tried everything she could. The company you posted the locator page from discontinued them. Maria asked them to scour the warehouse and there are none left. I am broken hearted as I am sure you will be, too. Now the world will call me a liar cuz you told everyone I found one. Please send my apologies to that woman.
Oh, Vickie, we don't blame you! We blame cold, cruel K&M Toys, for recklessly and foolishly assuming that the market for rubber naked mole rats was tapped out.
Discontinued? That's just crazy talk.
I'm convinced this is hopeless, so I really am giving up for all time. But if you ever should run across one, please do me a favor and buy it, then get in touch with me. I'll send you something nice, I promise.
