I was under my car, servicing it and my cat was playing (read: tormenting) with his catch when he started sniffing around my foot. It was then that I felt the mouse crawl up my leg. I slowly slid my hand down, forcing the mouse the reverse directions. It ran out and the cat caught it, thus continuing his torturous activities.

That's actually what it does to mice and rats; it thins out their blood to the point that they just hemorrhage internally. Of course to get the little pests to injest it, the bait is mixed with rolled oats (making Warfarin brand Rat Bait) to make a tasty concoction. And they eat it up like candy.George Stringamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11375285536941813368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8041348463273602795.post-22528206221395853892013-09-15T02:09:09.509-07:002013-09-15T02:09:09.509-07:00Warfarin?

I refer to these little stories as Coffee Stains. Seems to go hand in hand. And yes, I feel sorry for that poor mouse. Maybe he was running fast enough to blow the flames out.George Stringamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11375285536941813368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8041348463273602795.post-70041239444083253752012-04-25T21:04:45.454-07:002012-04-25T21:04:45.454-07:00Get those buscuits before the mice do.Get those buscuits before the mice do.George Stringamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11375285536941813368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8041348463273602795.post-17551116751208653062012-04-25T16:16:54.600-07:002012-04-25T16:16:54.600-07:00Gosh, I love the name of this blog!
