HELP....I need a humane rat trap!

[M.C Bird Rescue]

Let us know if you get lucky and manage to catch it OK won't you? The suspence is killing me! Then you can leave me out of the cupboard when it's safe!

They are still LOOSE!
I can't even find them. I have a bucket set up...HOPING they come out tonight.

 

[GG.]

are you sure they are still in the same room, it doesn't take but a tiny space and they can go through it

 

[Welshanne]

Feel so sorry for your dilemma but please please let us know when they are safely caught again. Until then I stay in that cupboard!

 

[M.C Bird Rescue]

Bad news...NO rats were caught last night! UGH. So again I will be setting up the bucket tonight in hopes they are caught. i have narrowed it down to 1 room I think they are in, they must be inside of furniture somewhere. I have turned the house upside down. Poor Guys...I bet they will be happy to find and be in a cage again where they are safe away from dogs and cats.

 

[Allessa]

Oh gosh Crystal! I cant imagine. Are they tame? Or is it just the trouble of catching them?

I remember a couple of years ago we had mice (never AGAIN by the way) but my husband has this MEAN sucker. It got to the point where we just never let him out anymore he was so bad. Well my brother came over, and opened the top, not realizing this mouse was like, Super Mouse. He jumped thru the door and jetted. Me, my brother, and my husband ALL trying to catch this •••• thing for an hour. We had a small apartment at the time so we could SEE him, but he was too darn fast.

Finally we cornered him and no one wanted to catch him...so I of course, had to grab him. I think he put 3 good holes in me before i was able to throw him back in his cage.

They are tame but skittish. We adopted them from an over flowing rat rescue. Long story. My sons pets, he didnt lock the cage! UGH UGH UGH!

good luck

Oh wow, what a situation. . . . Well I don't really have any advice that you haven't already recieved. Well . . . I guess I can say that you should look for signs of them around the house. Droppings, chewed up stuff, anything ratty. But, since you narrowed them down to one room, you probably already did that, so I just wasted thirty seconds of both of our lives.

Oh well.

Good luck finding the poor littler ratters!

I don't think you are safe yet!!

They must have been well fed and aren't hungry yet

 

[birdlady]

I hope you catch them tonight! THey must be getting hungry and thirsty...

 

[Sharpie]

Any luck? Poor girls...

 

[JLcribber]

I smell a rat!!! (No pun intended)

 

[Emmilyy]

Oh no, i hope you can get them back!

Are they very friendly? I've forgotton waffles cage door open a few times (when i had him.) I'd come home to my room DESTROYED, and an exhausted rattie exhausted and sleeping in his hammock. *rolls eyes*

 

[M.C Bird Rescue]

They won't get in the BUCKET??? Whats really bad was this morning when my son went off to school I felt really bad and put food and water out, Took him to school. When I came back there was food mess on the floor. Day 3 of Rat Catching! UGH

 

[birdlady]

I know..paint me a sucker! hahahah

 

[GG.]

nah, just chalk it up to 'investigation' but don't feed them any more - did you put a little food on the ramp to the bucket? that might entice them a little bit
