here's a quick funny story;
my cat caught a mouse. brought it upstairs next to grow room, let it go into grow room. got scared of grow room and ran downstairs. I spent next 2 hours from 12am - 2am finding the mouse and catching it and removing it from the house. I removed the mouse by grabbing it by its tail with a pair of pliers.
I was mad at my cat for giving up, she was licking herself downstairs, unknown to the fact I just did her job. She knew I was upset. I was glad. I was going to not give her bedtime treats, but I caved and did anyways.
the next night I hear her playing with another mouse... Im tired and in bed. I figure whatever I'll deal with it tomorrow, she will probably play with it and loose it again like she always does. I hear her playing with it some more, then I fall asleep.
I wake up to a dead mouse at the foot of my bed. The mouse had a plier crimp mark on its tail. I guess she showed me whats up.

I have a small army. I can hear them in the walls. It sounds like the Alien movie when the alien is homing in ... but without the creepy music or chest-bursting ending.
It's quite creepy sounding, without the music.
I just checked the trap in the living room - empty.
So now the trap goes in the crawl space.
I don't like poison because then they crawl off somewhere and die and stink.
About 2 months ago 2 new chickens came on the scene and I started feeding them outside the coop, as they learn to free-range.
Then the rats come out at night and finish off what the chickens didn't eat.
So I'm learning to give the chickens only what they will eat.
In the meantime, the rats did the exponential growth thing.

We had a couple cats and one was bigger than your average cat and we considered him a semi- badass because he would take a swing or a swat at our seventy pound pit bull when it walked by too close. (From above, on a couch or chair)
One day there was an unfamiliar dog coming up the driveway about halfway to the house, a terrier mix maybe not quite twice the size of Zeb the cat. When he saw the dog he raced out to meet it and when it saw he was coming turned and ran. Cat chased the dog off the property, funny to see, cat was so pissed.
Not a guard cat, but maybe with some training he could have been.
