Yesterday, I took Taycie outside for her morning potty. Around the corner of the porch there is an opening that goes under the porch. There is alot of plants and leaves around it...

So the last couple of mornings she keeps going over there and sniffing like crazy.. never underneath just around the area.. It takes a minute to get her attention and get her inside.. she is mesmorized by this area! I figured it was the yorkie that lives upstairs lifting his leg on the foliage and bushes so I didn't think much of it.

Well yesterday after her potty break she runs to investigate and sniff.. I am standing on the porch half awake..calling her, begging her really because I am still half asleep and all I want to do is climb back in bed..

All of the sudden I hear her FREAK out and she is shaking a BIG FAT RAT!!!!!!!!!!! Now I am WIDE awake and I start freaking out!!! I hate critters... I am scared to death... So she is shaking it and with me freaking out she drops it immedietly and looks at me like I have a problem.. I get her inside and watch the rat from the inside window..

Well... It was breathing but it eventually died. I was grossed out by the experience and immedietly brought her in and brushed her teeth and washed her face! HA! Now I know why they were used to catch rats, but ewww.. it is still giving me the chills!!!!!!!

I added a picture but the rat looks smaller in the photo because I was standing on the porch looking down... I was not about to go down there and get a closer view...

And.... The rat has been disposed off.. But, I did not do that..LOL
