Rat On The Loose!

[CathyBogart]

My own custom "rat trap" from when I had six...

Take a five-gallon bucket and out it on the floor. Leave something REALLY tasty inside, like peanut butter, something that the rattie can smell. Tape the edge of a towel to the rim of the bucket and leave the towel hanging over the edge. (Also, make sure the bucket is set up in such a way that it will be hard to tip over.) My ratties would climb the towel to get into the bucket and not be able to get out.

Good luck finding your little advanturer!

We found that little rattie... we were so scared we might have had to use a glue trap.. but we would use that veg. oil to get her off, we aren't the cruel type! Well, thanks to our brittany she found that little bugger! She would still be out today if it weren't for her. It took us probably 3-4 hours of looking. My dog was sniffing the cabinet and we opened it, she smelled around, nothing to be found. She was just sitting there looking at the cabinet though, so i followed her eyes to the bottom of a drawer...when I oppened it... WOOPEE! There's are little baby girl! We are SURE to close the door to the room she's in now. Thank God we found that girl!
