Okay, the cat it is.

For what it's worth, in my experience there are only two sorts of cats that will actually hunt vermin. Any feral cat and any female cat with a litter of kittens. It's unlikely you're going to get a feral cat to live in the house and no well fed kitten is going to hunt. They'll take targets of opportunity, but they won't hunt.

My dog catches mice but prefers shrews and voles.

Then why the "hollowman" self-title?

'Life' started out lame but kicked it up.

While going up against 'Lost' they better be full-throttle the whole ride through.

Watching it now. The girl keeps getting cuter and cuter.
 
A safe way to rid mice get some Fox urine scent and sprinkle it outside around your foundation in a few areas and your basement windows and doors.

Fear of predators will make them seek another home.

I have used this in dog kennels and it does work well .
 
Talk to your landlord and have him hire a reputable pest control company. Like someone said, mice breed at a fast speed and you need to take care of the problem as soon as possible or you'll soon have 4 generations of mice to deal with.

We tried the plug in sound devices when mice were in our shop. They worked for a few weeks, but the mice got used to the sound or something and they quit working. We ended up using lots of snap-traps and a couple live traps.

Poor loveu. I should lend her my cat. She is an even more vicious bitch. lol. *knocks on wood* I've never had pests, but apparently she is quite the huntress. My parents found this out while catsitting. Her first victim? A baby squirrel! A BABY SQUIRREL! Their house is a million years old, but I still can't fathom how a baby squirrel got in.
I was furious when I found out. When I looked into those big green stupid eyes, I couldn't fathom she had the capacity to torture and kill anything. "It's like I don't even know you anymore." "Mooow" (her meow is broken)
Little did I know it was all an act and she is really just a heartless bitch. She has gone on to torture, kill, and eat many more small creatures-furry cute ones. She is a monster...but I have to live with her. My cat is spayed and domesticated by the way.
 
If you have to ask if it's possible, you probably already know you shouldn't even try to begin with. I'd say negatory about the kitten while trying to resolve probs seeing how you've only been there 5 weeks (why bring a kitten in when you need immediate help?).

There's gotta be a better, faster way.

What I meant by "possible" was this time of year for a kitten. I don't know when they're breeding, giving birth, ect, etc.

And yeah, I already changed my mind. You know how that goes with me.

The other day, I asked the neighbor if he had any mice and he said "a few". I'm betting he's got tons. I'm on a block of row homes (that's a lot). We'd all have to do it, eh? Holes in floors, walls, basements, everyone has them, guaranteed. Imagine me walking down the block, knocking on neighbors doors and saying, "Can I sprinkle some of this fox urine (scent ;)) around your foundation, windows and doors?"

The building inspector is coming out next week. That should get the landlord moving with all these repairs. And I only mentioned a few. If you only knew. Damn landlord promised to fix everything. I wanna go to his house and stab all of his tires.

I'm sick.

Tell me. Doesn't this look as big as a rat hole? There's a close up and a distance shot. Every "mouse" I've caught has a really long tail and a humpy (humpy? :rolleyes:) looking back, in my opinion anyway.

You can break your lease, rodent infestation is a habitability issue but you must leave the house.

According to the building inspector, no I can't. I was very lucky that my stop payment didn't go through because I was told that he could have evicted me.

Once the building inspector comes next week, they'll give him a certain amount of time to fix things, and if he doesn't, I believe I'm free to leave, but they must return my security deposit first. He'll most likely get fined as well.

Depends on your State, should have said that..I am slipping...
 
That hole looks pretty big (though I'm using my phone and the image is small).

The mouse holes that I've seen are just a little larger than a quarter

At least I'm not the only one.

Fabulous! Fabulous! Gr!

I'm guessing it's about 6 inches long and almost 4 inches wide. I packed it with garbage bags and put a few bricks up next to it several hours ago. Now I'm reading about the difference between a rat and a mouse.

Interesting quiz to see if you can tell what's what: http://www.ratbehavior.org/QuizRatOrMouse.htm

The vet missed something. But in the end, she's no different than any other female.

*gasp* Well I never.... ...yeah you're probably right.


Anytime I take her anywhere, she goes sniffing around. I would call that hunting. Yeah?
 
I find it hilarious that your RENTED trailer is infested with mice! LMAO!!!

No wonder your kids are fucked up on drugs.

Try getting out of the fucking trailer park and getting a job you useless twat.

Sometimes Nipples is the go-to guy. Like Stever Kerr when you had to have the 3 pointer.
Yeah, I'm showing my age a bit. Fuck you.
 
here, we've got stickybaits - basically a flat plastic tray with some incredibly sticky goo on top.
when the mice/rats run over them, they quite literaly 'stick' and stop dead - even at a full run!
absolutely amazing things.
anyway, get a few of those and put them around where the mice/rats seem to trek (usually edges of walls or under fridges/sofas/etc) and before you know it, you'll have platefulls of squealing stuck rodents to deposit outside your landlords door every day.

beats cleaning up mouseguts and blood too.
