lol we have 2 pet rats. not to everyone's liking but they are very intelligent and funny. You gotta watch 'em though cos they'll eat almost anything, including an original 1930s Art Deco standard lamp. !!
I left my Marina camper over one winter with a window open slightly so air would circulateand had part of the back seat and a picnic rug demolished by a squirrel making a nest for the winter. It had eat various foodstuffs such as a bag of dried pasta , but kindly left the half bottle of Highland Park untouched...
I kept visualising opening one of the many cupboards and seeing a mossilised squirrel looking back out at me
cheers

No I don't think so - car was in a semi-open barn for 13 years before I rescued it - mouse probably just fancied a high class bijou residence. In fact, in his/her memory I am going to keep the holed headlining but stitch round the edge to prevent further damage - am I mad or what?
We let Riley into the garage to hunt down the mouse that had been avoiding the mousetraps. He came back in through the catflap with his prize.
Probably not agile enough to catch a live one, but "a kill is a kill!"[frame][/frame]

Has to be the giant woolly 8 footer .............at the very least.
Not for the feint hearted...... Buy a large portion of pie n chips unwrapped open a can of worthingtons and make kissing noises with your lips . It'll soon get flushed out the garage. Good luck, be brave.
