Some of you may remember a thread I started on how to dispose of a rejected feeder rat and I had planned on getting it a new enclosure. Before I could get one, we checked on the rat and sure enough, it had found a way out of the box it had been living in. We searched the house but could find no rat. We figured it was hiding in a closet somewhere or behind something. Last night my fiance yells for me to come upstairs. He had found the rat! Apparently my cats are useless at finding rodents. I had hoped they would alert us to the presence of the rat but no, instead they had decided to share their food and water instead. My fiance went into our bedroom to discover our youngest cat drinking from the water dish alongside the escapee rat. Thankfully we caught the rat and now it will have a secure enclosure until we can get dry ice for our CO2 chamber.
