A 5-foot alligator sneaked into a Louisiana home in the middle of the night using the doggy door, according to a sheriff’s office.
But the nosy reptile’s fun was over when the resident dog alerted homeowners to its presence.

Photos shared by the sheriff’s office show the alligator looking quite pleased with itself as it lays near a carpet in the home. Video shows an official with a long pole stealthily creeping toward the alligator from around a corner. The official then secures a loop around the alligator’s neck and subdues it as it thrashes wildly.
The alligator was relocated, according to the sheriff’s office.

Ha! The couple with the alligator in their home had recently moved from AZ. They should have known better.
True.
And elsewhere, chimneys.

Bttt
Ah yes, chimneys. Good point!
Raccoon’s hide behind bush to make a rush for the pet food.
What’s worse, stepping on a Lego block in the middle of the night or an alligator?
Mother ran out of the bathroom one day hollering about a snake in the toilet. Grandpa said he’d put a rock on the lid because he kept hearing bumps in the night. He poured gas down the toilet (gas was his solution to everything) and it started bubbling and sending white globs up so I sat on the floor with my chin on the seat to watch it. BAM! A 6 foot racer flew out and hit me square between the eyes and was going crazy climbing the walls. I ran. Mother ran. Grandpa ran farthest telling everyone else to shut the door. That was the only time I ever saw him wimp out.
holy cow!
Raccoons wait by the porch door until everyone has sat down to dinner. Then they meander into the kitchen.
Oh geez!
My small, reptilian brain cannot process your question.
W-I-N-N-E-R!
That and “The Shoe”, LOL!
Yes more of them on cold nights.
Choot it Elizabeth, Choot it!
You would need to have very small feet to make a pair of alligator boots with that critter.
See, in south Louisiana nobody would call animal control. They’d just start making a roux.
A possum entered a friend’s home thru a doggie door. What a stench!
LOL! Well done! Save me some gator bites.
