My workplace is now infested with mice and rats b/c a new boss decided to get rid of the feral cat population that lived under the buildings - and kept the rats away - they even gnaw through the sides of the buildings to get inside.
At home, I have a champion ratter kitty - she climbs into the fruit trees to get at the rats - she's cleared out our yard of these vermin - gophers too. I noticed an exterminator at my next door neighbor's house last week - he said he's got a rat infestation now, I think my atomic kitty drove the rats over to his property. I told him to get a cat...
Where I live, I had never seen a rat until the other day when a dead rat was found in the swimming pool. That rat somehow survived despite Kirby, a frisky tuxedo cat with a voracious appetite who lives with a neighbor, and Sister, a solid black, golden-eyed senior citizen who loves catnip and lives with another neighbor.
