We caught the rat

Tweet

Last night the rat was caught in the trap. It was huge and I didn't expect this. I am so glad we caught it early before ruining our home. I heard a loud noise in the bathroom. It tried so hard to escape. One of my cats was terrified when he saw how big it was. We didn't have to kill it. My father took it outside. I hope it didn't have any disease. We sanitized the bathroom. I didn't expect to catch it so soon. I thought that rats were smarter. I am glad that no one has been bitten. I read about diseases carried by rats. I found out that Leptospirosis is a dangerous disease. I am worried that I can get this disease. My father's friend died because of Leptospirosis. But it's a very rare disease. I can understand why some people keep rats as pets. It seemed so innocent and cute, but I know that they can bite and be aggressive. But cats won't touch it. They are smart and they know that they can be dangerous. The rat we caught was a Norway rat and some people keep them as pets.
