had one of a garter snake but can't find it anywhere
Awesome! Bats are so cool! We've had a few in the shed at times.
Love that frog. Out cat Annie was desperately trying to get to something behind a bookshelf the other night. I just figured it was another crane fly (which she sometimes eats!). Turns out it was a little frog. Thankfully I caught it and took it outside before she could mangle it. This (and the fact the we have the occasional fox, coyote and racoon around here) is exactly why she is an indoor cat. Other wise she would be a serial killer (birds, rabbits, lizards, frogs, etc) or victim to the fox, coyote or racoon. She has a real kill or be killed nature... except with humans, and then she is sweet as can be!
cool, where do you live again?
had another bat in my apartment. Came home late last night and two things were knocked over on a really high shelf. Thought it might have been my cat bit there was no way she could have gotten up there. Went to bed and woke up around 5 for some reason and saw a bat flying around my apartment (which isn't too big by the way). first thing i did was put my cat in the other room so she wouldn't be in the way. then i opened up the door that leads into the building hallway and my porch door hoping it would fly out but no just kept on flying on circles pretty much. Tried "shooing" it away with a box and accidentally hit twice. second time i hit it, it fell on my chair. i just grabbed some magazines and picked it up with them and tossed it out the porch door. It wasn't injured, It flew away so glad i didn't hurt it too bad.
and again this morning. That's like 4th or 5th bat i've had in apartment in the past 10 or so years. Cat woke me up around 5:30 or so and saw her staring at something. Then i heard flapping above my head and saw the bat. Opened up the door to the hallway of my apartment complex and also the screen door to my porch hoping it would fly out and it did after about 5 minutes or so. Sorry no pics. Do have video which i posted on facebook.
Well
another bat was in my apartment the past two nights. Thought it escaped
the one night cause I didn’t see it. Woke up in the middle of the night
and saw it flying around the room again. Opened up the hallway and
back porch screen door and it flew out in the hallway. Came back from
work today and he was sleeping upside down by my upstairs neighbors
door. Maintenance came down and got him with a net and set him free.

Well woke up to find another bat (or possibly the same one) in my apartment. Not quite sure how they are getting in cause there’s an apartment above and below me. Only thing I can think of it’s somehow getting in through where my washer and dryer are. There is a space where they can fit in. Well here it is chillin’ on my AC. Now it’s in our hallway again.

Nice photo. But waking up to a bat in my apartment would totally freak me out. How is your cat reacting to it.

i think she's used to it now . The first couple times my cats were excited and Kali chased one once. The last few times she hasn't really done anything.

I am glad they didn’t catch it. I would be a little nervous about disease if they came in contact with it. My cats are up to date with rabies shots. But as we know bats are notorious carriers of disease. Your landlord needs to take care of this.

Bats are so cool and nice that you got photos!
A few nights ago, I went to open up our enclosed breezeway for the night to cool it off and before I could get the screen door closed a bat flew in. I gave it time to find its way back out before closing up. It was fun to watch it do it's herky jerky flight for a minute or two.

Mom turtle comes to our yard every year. I was able to watch it for a while and make sure it crossed the street safely.
I love turtles. My parents used to have one that would come to their yard to sun itself on the top end of their driveway. Now I mostly see lizards and deer when I visit them.

Nice Mrat. When I cut my grass I always try to cut around the clovers. The animals and bugs depend on the weeds that a lot of people kill. Let them grow if you can.
have seen this gal(?) flying around the backyard(s) the past couple days. first days being chased by what sounded like some crows. At least they were sounding the alarm. Yesterday I think she took flight from our tree. Today has her sitting here....
now I have to change my rat control procedure. Dont want him getting sick from a poisoned rat.....
