So, I set two traps to catch the rat that was hiding under the oven last night. I just went via the kitchen to go to the loo... and there he was! Alive! He's nicked the food from one of the traps without springing it!
I went to the toilet after moving the second trap closer to therat. While i was in there... *CLACK!*. I smiled... But then when out and saw that he'd got thefood, sprung the trap, then hidden behind the radiator... Though customer indeed! So, I opened the door to the courtyard and the mouse came down, then stoped. I hit the wall with a broom to try to sare it outide...and it ran toards me and hid behind the washing machine!

Nope, me too.
I love animals, all animals so...
When I was little my grandma had some rats in her cell, so...
She tried to catch the rats with this tricks... My god, horrible.
Then I gave to her a cat.
And the rats can smell cats, so...
No more rats and no mor traps :P
Happy Eledh. YAY! XD

OK, so it was a mouse... And I just saw another one in the kitchen. Shit. So, I'll reset the traps and hope this one is lless indefatigable than its predecessor.
Don't get me wrong, I love animals. One of my mates had two rats that he'd trained to jump from his bedsiade table to his bed, brillant! BUT I don't like them in my flat, uninvited, scavenging for food. Especially seeing as my flatmate is scared of them (before you ask, yes, my flatmate is a girl) and when she's stressed out, imy life's hell... Then again, she's always stressed out. |
