So many rats
I
ran into our neighbor with a little brown dog and a big white dog at
the dumpster. Both dogs pulled toward me and my mostly empty trash bag.
"There's a rat in there," I told him. In the early a.m. I heard a big
crash and wandered to the living room. Maeve, the ginger cat, had a dead
rat in her mouth; Claude, the gray and white, was staring at her. Maeve
dropped the rat beside a chair, whereupon I plucked it up with a
plastic bag and deposited it in the trash can. "So many rats,"
I said to the neighbor. I asked him if he's in the military. He said
no, but many of his friends are, and they're freaking out. Getting fancy
dinners and all. I threw the rat in the green dumpster. Bryant sent me a
photo of a rat in a trap in Volcano. Was that the hot dog eater, or the
almond butter lover? The trap hadn't quite finished the job, so he had
to. There have been more since. So many rats.
