They've got all the rat moves.
Four (female) college students took matters, brooms and mops into their own hands to evict a rat from their Pittsburgh apartment,
the whole ordeal then uploaded the tense 13-second footage

I caught and killed a rat with my bare hands once. They are pretty tough. I wasn’t about to shoo it away.
I don’t see any video at the link.
1 rat down. 57,000,042 to go.
Beat the cat or the snake?
It's like a Rube Goldberg method....pretty funny.
Snake. Cat became a house cat for years.
You’re right. They do come back. A field rat came back after I washed it out of its 2 holes in the back yard. I collapsed the holes and filled it with mud. It came back at night and dug itself a new hole. The next morning, I found the hole, sealed it with a mesh screen and kept it in the hole while the water flooded the hole. Took care of that rat permanently.
Sounds like a good tale. Can you tell us what happened?
Cat came in squalling. The snake had wrapped itself around her about four times. Grabbed the gun but realized... yeah, well. Grabbed hubby’s leather gloves and unwrapped the cat. There I was with a snake too big for a shoe or hammer so took granny’s old cast iron skillet to it in the middle of the living room carpet. Had to clean the carpet after that.
A few years later, the neighbor got up enough nerve to ask what all the “Die! Bam! Die! Bam! Die!” hollering was all about.
Especially if they're indoor-outdoor kitties who do their business outside.
We kept ours inside for about a month during the really cold weeks. We immediately had rats and mice gnawing their way into the walls and attic.
When the temps went up, we dispensed with the litter box and got them going outside again. The rodent problem ceased instantly.
“I don’t see any video at the link.”
After reviewing the four young ladies, in the first photo.
Yes, one has a crown that says ‘legally 21’!
The second photo still has a large triangle, pointing to your right.
Clicking the cursor over the triangle should work?
Yes, you must scroll past the first photo!
“Die! Bam! Die! Bam! Die!”
Now that had me me laughing!!! Thanks so much for sharing. :)
LOL!
And legended had it, that snakes came for the rats!!!....And legend had it I used to wrap blasting caps inside a gob of peanutbutter and lay them in the bunkers. Place smelled like hell, but nobody got bit.
I love my cat dearly but I would have had a heart attack.
I have an irrational, intense phobia of snakes. I can’t even look at a picture of one. I’m even scared of rubber snakes.
That is one of the most terrifying stories I’ve ever read. You have my respect.
The One Eyed Snakes are the most dangerous ones.
They have two Minds working for them, not just one.
Just sayin’...
