Big softy

I found 5 new born rats in the compost heap and couldn't bring myself to dispatch them.

I was rescued by a woman!!! She came and took them away (I think her hens had a treat).

I have been knowh to find rodent pups in my heap.

And also to make a refuge for their mum to take them to-mice and rats.

They don`t bother me so I don`t bother them.

I like rats and mice - the house kind! I used to catch the wild rats when I was a wee girl, in the yard near where I lived in Govan. We "weans" would see who could catch the most! I caught a few by there tails and then let them go!
