Well, I manage a Restaurant.
There is newly opened highschool down the street. Those kids come everyday after school is out.....and there are alot of them!
There was an older couple in for a late lunch. Before they left, the man approached me to let me know that there was a some sort of rodent running around and that I should take care of this problem.
I looked around, not wanting to make a big deal with these kids around.
One of the kids yelled out, "ew there's a rat in here". As all of them probably already knew that I was looking for it, the one kid showed me where. It was hiding between the wall and a garbage receptacle on the floor, with only about an inch or two to move.
After most of the kids were gone, we were able to lure it into a box. I did want to make sure that it was not a wild one.
ops: Poor little guy.....they cut the end of his tail and it was bleeding. You could see the bone. He was a baby. Shaking and shaking. It was obvious that he was not wild.I couldn't imagine to let him loose......he would not survive out there.
I really wasn't in the 'market' for anymore pets, but I have no regrets on giving him a new home......
He is very gentle and loves people! (I think he may even like the cats)
The name of the restaurant I manage, part of the name includes "Jack".
I figured it made sense!
And I hope that I don't find anymore animals. I may need to get a larger home!
