Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Yikes, you won't believe what I found in my bathroom. . .

I went downstairs (finished basement) to do laundry and there laying on the bathroom floor was a huge, dead RAT. Yes, I said RAT. My 9 1/2 year old cat, who thinks she is young again since we moved, went out hunting last night. We have a vacant lot across the street from our house and I guess she thought it would be very nice to bring a little present home. I can handle most anything, bugs, etc. except rats. Of course DH is gone. Fortunately my son was home. I called him down and told him he was a man and needed to take care of it for me. He's 18, its about time he learned to do these type of manly things. He asked if I would hold the bag but I couldn't go anywhere near the bathroom or look at the rat. I just hate them.

Sweet boy that he is, he bagged it up and took it right to the trash. Lucky for me he was home or I would have had to do it myself. My kitty is now cut off from going out at night. I usually leave a window open for her to come and go but not anymore. I am counting my lucky stars that she did all of this downstairs and didn't bring it up to my bedroom. I have heard of cats that do that.
