Fearless rat goes on the attack by pouncing towards dog and cat when they corner it [tr]
UK Daily Mail ^ | November 19, 2019 | Nick Enoch

A courageous rat decided to fight back when it was confronted by a cat and dog in a house in Thailand.

Footage shows the vermin as it squares up against the two pets in the rubbish-strewn home on Sunday, November 10.

During the three-minute scrap, the rat leaps and squeaks menacingly whenever the larger animals try to corner it.

The trio are first seen in the front section of the house but the tactical rat then takes the fight nearer the back - and uses cookery ware on the floor as a hiding place, and a launchpad for a counterattack.

Does anyone miss the symbolism?

If so, I'll be glad to explain it to you.

It’s what rats do

Which is why I am at a complete loss when my anti abortion suburban women friends turn up their noses at Trump’s ‘arrogance’. (I do not agree that he is arrogant, they jut don’t know how to label it)

It takes a lot more than dignity to fight back against these people. Schiff wouldn’t let Stefanik speak. He had to by law but nope

Oh! I got it!

The home is filthy and disgusting San Fran. Or Baltimore. Or Chicago. Or, heck, any major dem city.

The dog and cat are timid republicans.

The rat, obviously, is one of the democRATS! Or all of them.

The shoe-thrower, hopefully, is not Horowitz, Durham, or Barr.

Did I miss anything? lol

Cornered animals are dangerous.
Some years back, my mom’s 6 pound cat got cornered on our front porch by a 3 year old doberman pinscher. The cat killed the dog.

Was the rat large enough to supply a pelt for a hat?

Source wouldn’t let me in because of my ad blockers, so I found it on youtube.

Gee, I can’t imagine why such a tidy residence would have a rat in it. /sarcasm

Some Guinness was spilt on the barroom floor
When the pub was shut for the night.
When out of his hole crept a wee brown mouse
And stood in the pale moonlight.
He lapped up the frothy foam from the floor
Then back on his haunches he sat.
And all night long, you could hear the mouse roar,
“Bring on the goddamn cat!”

It’s not fearlessness, it’s instinct. Cornered animals will often attack their predator.

Must be a slow new day. That several minutes I can’t get back, watching a dog play with a rat. My dog would have ate him in a second. Hounds are crazy like that.

We had a dachshund that killed two rats that had tunneled under a bricked area in the backyard. Bricks and dead rats were scattered around.

And all night long, you could hear the mouse roar,

I used to sing that to my boys when they were small...but used "Bring on the doggone cat" instead of the Lord's name in vain version.
