I had always wondered about those flaps in doors for pets... if strange creatures might not wander in. I didn't think about your own pet bringing in wildlife. LOL josh

You mean you are not thrilled that Jasmyn brought you such a nice present? My cat is trying to catch a gopher which burrows throught the back yard since about 2 weeks. Hope she don't catch it and bring it in.

Now's the time to do a bit of bribery... Trina used to catch moles and leave them on the doorstep, sitting guard until I gave her a smidgeon of broiled scallop. That cat would do *anything* for scallops! I was always so glad that it didn't occur to her to leave the bodies on my pillow.

We've at times left the back door ajar with the same results. Once my grey tabby brought his live mouse (his prey is almost always very much alive) upstairs and to my bed. If we had a cat flap, I'd probably have a house full of mice and the occasional baby rabbit. Probably cicadas too.
