Last night I was up late helping Kathryn chase rats out of her room. Yes, rats. Plural. As in two.

Apparently there's a hole for the pipes for the heater/gas thingy in her closet and that's where they were coming in from. Long story short, her room is in complete disarray, with her stuff spread out in the common area, on her bed and on her desk and the rats are now back in the wall. One went in through the kitchen somehow despite us attempting to guide it out by blocking off the kitchen and under the fridge and stove and blocking off the living room. The other went through the hole in the closet.

We got the one that went into the kitchen out of her room by playing hockey with it and the brooms. I managed to fling into our shelves in the kitchen. That part was fun.

The other one hid under her bed for a while, most likely where we found it later: in her bottom mattress. These guys are sneaky little fuckers.

Anyway, we temporarily plugged the hole with tin foil, left our little blockade up and have the bean bag blocking the stairs. I'm having breakfast on campus as to not disturb the blockade too much.
