You maybe are me ten years ago... :smirk: This story kinda proves it. No need to kill any sentimental being. Thanks for doing what you do. BTW i'm an idiot often enough...
I see the dilemna with keeping rodents away and yet helping one. At least this one will have at least one more adventure. I wonder if there is a way to draw them (or put them) away to a place where their presence is not a problem.
I caught a shrew in a humane trap and took it about 1000 feet away. It came back. Next time, I took it a mile away near a prison. There were more, though. We should have fed the cat that showed up at our door when we moved in!
Jajajaja, si solo supieras la gran cantidad de alacranes, escorpiones, arañas grandes y peludas, rabipelados y otros bichos más raros y feos que el carajo que vienen a visitarme aquí a mi cueva cuando menos me lo espero. Y a todos ellos siempre procuro atraparlos y agarrarlos vivos con algún envase vacío o alguna vaina con la boca ancha con la finalidad de no hacerles daño, para luego tirarlos bien lejos de nuevo al monte de donde supuestamente vinieron y que vayan a joder a otro?
Así que en mi opinión has hecho bien en no actuar precipitadamente con tu nuevo pequeño amiguito y haberle tendido una mano cuando aparentemente más lo necesitaba. Que estoy seguro que ni él ni nadie podrá acusarte nunca de haber sido un idiota por lo que has hecho.
Porque... ¿Qué es lo peor que puede pasar con tu acertada y bienaventurada acción?
¿Que luego regrese tu amiguito a la casa con sus hermanitos para que les des también un poquito de esa agüita azucarada tan sabrosa que te devuelve el alma al cuerpo?
I'm fine with mice outside, because round here, if you've got mice it means you haven't got rats.
But if they come into the house (so far they haven't, they are probably smart enough to know we've got two very predatory cats), then I know we have to take them at least a mile away or they'll just find their way back to us.
I actually quite like mice, they're cute and generally harmless as long as they can't get at food or electric wires.
Ai não tem possums pois não? Aqui são uma praga semi-controlada, mas difícil de controlar (e com grandes custos). Ratazanas também mas esses são mais localizados.
