re: #329 SanFranciscoZionist

A family acquaintance—a police detective—once had to be dissuaded by his mother from shooting a raccoon in his kitchen, after he discovered that pepper spray does not slow them down.

*sigh*
Well, I will admit this - we had a rat get into our house, just one, the cat jumped through the window with him.

He got away from the cat, and ran under our stove. I did NOT want the rat coming out from under the stove. I did NOT want him getting stuck under there and dying.

The Roi shot him, and got him out of the house.
I didn’t really much like it. But there was simply nothing else to do.
