*looks glumly at Puss* Was that Lady by any chance? If so, her son is just the flaming same!!!

Not that we have any rats down our loo.... or at least I don't think so!! oooerrr!

Love

Daff xxxxx

I think it's in the kitchen now - Betty was just sat staring at the gap between kitchen cupboard and washing machine!

mine has just brought one in and it's on the loose - try as I might I cannot find it - have upended all the furniture - let the cat back in to see if he can find it but he's not interested now!

We only realised one of our cats had brought a mouse in when we started to smell it - it was under a unit in the dining room. One of our cats went to the woods and caught rabbits which he brought home. He would stay in the garden and eat them, or bring them in and let them go - difficult getting one out from under the piano

yikes scary mary, i have a real phobia especially rats, we had a real hunter she would go down to the railway tracks in the nite and bring home a huge shiny black rat with its head bitten off, so cat flap got locked at nite , still the rat/s appeared , one morning i got up earlier than normal and there was moggy sat staring at the toilet, it seems further down the pipe was a break in it so moggy was fishing them out the loo, i couldn't sit flat on the loo for a long time

Ewwww nice one George lol....I'd take the cupboards down just in case if it was me and paint the wall...I'd be paranoid about the eventual whiff otherwise...and you know really that if you do take the cupboards down there won't be anything behind them..because that's how it always works...but then you'd have peace of mind.

Mine don't bring anything in but leave it on the doorstep. This week they're bringing me a couple of poor birds a day...lovely blue tit on there this morning :0(

now what a spiffing idea,,dont do things by half,,,,,,just rip the bathroom to bits for the sake of little jerry,}}}}}
it will be making plans to sneak out under the cover of darkeness as we speak like,,,,,,,,,yikes!!!!!!

Hi Kay,
fortunately the bathroom is downstairs - hopefully one of the 3 cats will see it sneaking up the stairs!!!!
It's just the thought of it dying behind the cupboards - there are 3 of them - not knowing until i smell it - and my having to empty the cupboards out and unscrew them from the wall.

I suppose on the bright side, I can get the (inevitable with cats) fluff out from under them!!
Could even paint that wall while I'm at it, as I'm in the middle of decorating!!

will you be walking on stilts when you need to go Maggie,,,,,its probally gone in a dark place to die.......but then it could squeeze under the door and end up dead on your pillow,,,,,,a pressie from dear George,:}}}}}}

George the cat brought in a mouse tonight - it wasn't dead (but none too healthy either).
I managed to stop him going upstairs and steered him to the bathroom (which is downstairs). I thought he'd killed it - but the 'grey bits' on the floor were fluff - pulled out from underneath some cupboards.
After he'd had his supper, he went back into the bathroom and sat staring at said cupboards for over 20 minutes - then gave up!!
Soooo..... is the mouse dead - which will involve detaching the cupboards from the wall to remove it. Or alive - which will mean keeping the bathroom door shut and buying a trap?
