The only time we've had wild animals in the house is when the cats brought them inside... alive and unharmed so we could join in on the fun of chasing them. :| Cardinals are surprisingly aggressive birds, and blue jays are just terrifying.

A neat fact about American possums: their body temperatures are low enough that they can't carry the rabies virus. They still carry fleas and such, though, so you don't want to get close to them.
Wait, really? I always thought they were rabies transmitters. I did not know that, that's so interesting!
Well, besides interesting simply for the fact of North-American-marsupial.
I think.
Are they marsupials?
Maybe I'm mis-remembering.

Silly kitties. Mine never brought in anything. Thank goodness.
I hope that the new one doesn't either. lol.
I think they're marsupials. I might be misremembering though. I do know that they have a weird nipple pattern. lol. A circle and then another one in the middle. And an uneven number of nipples as well!

... I didn't know that, either. Huh.
(Maybe your cats think you need hunting practice? And they're trying to teach you?)

Mine have brought in mice before
Once Doink brought in one, it freed itself, so she and Rufus were hunting it
I caught the damn thing with tupperware

Oh dear, flea issues? Sounds miserable. And you have two dogs, right? So you can't keep them indoors while you treat for it, which means you might get rid of them all and have new ones just come right back on in.
Hurray for spray!
