Nice rat. Did you check the cat for rat bites?

How are you planning on cooking it? Don't forget to share with the cat, she brought it home, after all.

Tin,

Living in an older house in an older neighborhood, I have way more experience with these things than I wish I had.

In our house, our kids refer to the odd visitor as "the big mouse".

I discovered that a crazy neighbour across the back FEEDS the damned things!

Gonna have to get Environmental Health in. I know we are never far from a rat but we don't need to feed the buggers up.

So..... I am beginning to think with all of you so anxious to braise up that poor little rat for dinner, I should probably make myself invisible on this site for a while to so as to preserve my precious little "FROG" legs from consumption at the evening dinner table.

I recall seeing a cartoon where frogs are hopping into a french resturant and coming out in little wheelchairs as amputees.

Aw! That looks like the ones we rescued a while back. We let them go a few weeks ago :]

But today my dog brought me a baby bunny. It's not all the way dead either... :[ so we are humanely putting it to sleep right now.

I have rats in the multiples, too. I'd like to borrow the cat, please. I am tired of rats living on the furnace and making the insulation into nests.
