Who's scared of RATS?

I didn't mind rats until they chewed through my fucking washing machine hose...and my ethernet cables...and my speaker cables...and my headphones...and my flatmate's shoes...and my coat.........................

Trade your cat in for this one Get it young and train it to kill what it brings home...

Apparently cats can be trained but they are so good at ignoring you that it usually seems like too much work

End of rat problem...[/QUOTE]

Funny story!

Rats dont belong in houses. I spent many years living rurally and they are a fact of life, OUTSIDE! Now live in small town NZ and dont expect them to be around, I certainly dont provide an environment for them. The local council refuses to give out rat baits to rural dwellers, but in town......no worries!

Bastards!

my ex- cat (RIP) torturing another captured rodent. I've lost count the number of times he has brought back mice, rats, giant insects, sparrows and parrots. Luckily the majority of them were already dead, but on at least two occasions the mice/rats managed to escape inside the house. Needless to say the olds weren't impressed by his mad hunting skillz...

Just think of rats as a star. That's what my dad told me when I was a little girl. Took me a little while to work it out. By the time I did they did not seem so bad. Wise man my dad. xxx

A star that'll run up your leg and bite your knee? little bastards.

Oh yes, we have nights with the curtains up/lounge suit upended/tv moved/doors opened....cat thinks its hua of joke, almost like a game that the whole family can play. Saw the cat 3/4's the way up the curtains one night, the mouse could climb and so could she, dont worry about the holes Blackie!...ya bastard...

My cat doesn;t like mice...he brings in insects and stuff like that but never had a mouse brought in. One time he even decided to show me that he can get a baby possum, which was the same size as him.

Only your knee? Thought womens stockings had ladders in them so they could run right up

That reminded me of someone I once knew. He reckoned the only ladder that it was safe to be under were the kind found on womans legs. He had a shocking sense of humour. He was a cat fancier and showed his prize queen. It never won a thing as it was too fat. Every night he'd give her a bowl of milk and add a little whiskey. Not much just a wee treat. We'd come back one night and I was a bit under the weather. So he gives the his cat the 'treatment' that's what he called it and I make an silly remark about him having two drunk cats so he adds more whiskey than usual and before we know what's happening the cat wanders off with the wobbles. Not one of my better nights but still at the time it was hilarious, still is when I think about it................but in this day and age..................not even in New York any more.
