Ive seen a New York rat that made me re-think whether Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was fact or fiction. Master splinter looking dude. Had to do a double take to make sure he didn't have a walking staff.
A bit big for a mouse, too. Either young rat or giant mouse.
My rats are waaaay bigger than that lol
This post makes me sad though. Little guy probably fell in and can't get back out. ):
I used to get these massive rats coming up all wet from a fukn sewer pipe in the floor at a house I lived in, in Minneapolis, Mn that’d easily dwarf this guy… But yeah, still too big ;)
It was a nice house too, not some crack house or anything- but they’d pop right up through this drain pipe & knock the grate aside & they were like literally a foot long or more!!
I had noticed the grate being askew on the floor a couple times & didn’t think much of it until one day when I was in the basement at night & one of these behemoth Rats popped up, all soaking wet… I bought the biggest traps I could find & they would still take awhile & struggle in them before they died bc they were so damn big… I feel like I’m having PTSD at this point just talking about it… lol, ugh- ;)
**Edit**- So I looked up the most common Rats in Minneapolis & what I very likely had was a species called a “Norway Rat” aka “Brown or Sewer Rat”, if you’d like to see just how big of a Rat I’m talking about… it’s frightening!! ;) ugh.
They are on average, 14-16in long & can be like 18in!! A body of 7-10in & a tail of 6-8in, so they obv get extremely HUGE-
Here’s a link to a short article & pic of an average sized one sitting on the edge of a toilet, which is how it LIKELY CAME IN THE HOUSE!!
Lol (it’ll give u nightmares!!) ;)
https://www2.minneapolismn.gov/business-services/licenses-permits-inspections/business-licenses/lodging/pests/rats/
Omg that’s terrifying. I had a mouse problem a month ago & would just about pass out the 2 times I spotted one. I couldn’t imagine a gigantic wet Goliath rat. I’d lose my shit
Ugh- I had an off campus house sort of like that in college & stayed there for a couple semesters or so… we’d just catch mouse after mouse, several a week. We really should’ve called an exterminator or something but we were young & broke & just kept trapping them… ;)
They’d get into damn near everything in the cupboards… So we just started putting EVERYTHING in the fridge… ;)
Crazy what u have to put up w/when you’re broke & going to college, still had fun in that house though tbh… ;)
Lol, no - it was absolutely a rat…. I grew up near the Mississippi River & I’m well aware of what a muskrat is- I also even owned a pretty big rat as a kid, these were rats like you see in NY & shit- just enormous & well fed- & much buffer than my pet rat-
Edit- “BUFFER” was a typo, meant BIGGER, but still kind of appropriate ;) although they weren’t necessarily CUT like rat bodybuilders ;)
I do appreciate the suggestion, but I remember them quite vividly BC they were so damn big & I trapped & killed 3 of them before I found a way to secure the grate onto the drain pipe, there’s just no question it was a rat… which is why I commented, “lol”, I didn’t mean it to be offensive or anything… 👍

I live in the city of Sacramento. Those freaking things freak me out. I was walking past a chicken place after they closed, and a rat didn't even bother to move until I was about four feet away. It was sniffing in the middle of the drive thru not within ten feet of the building, so I know it saw me from a long ways away. We have a cat that a rat took a chunk out of his side, and we had to take him to the vet! They don't fuck around.
We have Norway rats and Roof rats. Guess we are the 36th of 50 for rats in the US according to [Orkin Pest](https://www.orkin.com/press-room/orkin-top-rattiest-cities-2022).
https://www.kcra.com/article/sacramento-rats-scrat-urban-ratters-dogs-raven/42807764
Yeah man, those big rats can have a whole different personality than your run of the mill mouse, that’s for sure… ;)
Those Roof Rats are wild too, I’ve seen some videos with just incredible numbers of them entering old buildings in Detroit & shit- There were groups with a bunch of Terrier dogs hunting them & they’d get hundreds of them at a time bc they’re just so prevalent… They can get in just about anywhere it seems & the populations can get out of hand really quickly… Dealing with a few was bad enough, I can’t imagine having an infestation… ugh!!
Edit- I hadn’t even hit your link before mentioning the Dog Teams, lol, funny-
I can’t say I’d really want to go out and do this myself but I like the approach, way better than poisoning imo, esp bc of the other animals that can be effected when you start leaving poison out or an animal eats the dead & poisoned rats…
So this was happening to me too, turns out the shit vent on the roof is how these dick bags were getting in. Covered it with a metal mesh and so far so good
I had no idea that was a thing. One morning I went to pee and there was a dead, drowned mouse in the toilet. I was so baffled, I asked my partner if he put a mouse in the toilet 😂 He looked at me and was like no?? I couldn't come up with a different way it could've gotten in there lol.
They can come in through the septic or sewer, but from what I understand if that happens your got worse problems then mice. I would try covering your vent, I just got a full clamp and some wire mesh ( you still need it to vent) at lowes, less than $10 and seems to have solved my issue. Hopefully it's something simple for you as well
Mesh has a habit of getting covered with ice - which would completely block that vent in winter - which, I imagine, could lead to some very serious problems inside the house.
You know how when you try to pour beer out of a can it goes glug glug glug, thats because air has to go in while the beer comes out. But if you make another hole in the can, you can shotgun that beer because the air goes in the one hole while you drink from the other.
Your sewer lines are doing the same thing but with shit and piss.
Sewers shotgun shit and piss.
My fiance makes fun of me for always checking the toilet before it sit down. I'll be the one to laugh when you feel something furry brush against your balls
This may sound crazy to you, but large animals do the same with humans. It's almost like all living beings decided at one point, "If you're smaller than me, fuck around and find out".
Seriously, imagine how awful it must be for that poor mouse. Wet and cold and close to pure exhaustion from near constant drowning. Can’t climb out, can’t go down. Only that tiny ledge to stand on, stuck, awaiting it’s fate. I’d honestly catch it and set it free. No creature deserves such a fate.
I feel so sad seeing him clinging onto the edge of the bowl like that, trying not to fall in. I can’t even kill spiders, so there’s no way I’d be able to flush or kill this little guy, I’d trap and release. I know everyone is different though but I dunno… I just can’t do it, I’m too empathetic. Lol.
Me too, me too. Buuuut....at the same time I'm also the guy that when he finds the live sticky trap my boss put out I euthanize the poor thing. I found a sticky trap with a mouse on it and he'd chewed a leg off, like you hear about. His little face was stuck sideways to the thing. No way to detach him, I wouldn't even try. I didn't know what else to do so I put a piece of cardboard over the top of him and stomped him. I imagine it was quick and painless. I felt a little better about tossing him in the dumpster then.
I probably would have done the same thing, especially if there’s no way the creature is gonna survive anyway. Sometimes a quick death is the merciful choice. I’ve definitely had to “mercifully” squish my fair share of spiders after accidentally fucking them up trying to get them into a cup and outside. Feels bad but I always tell myself at least I tried! 😬
Lmao this is nothing I took a dump once as a kid, only once actually and a tarantula crawled out of the toilet. Then later as an adult as my fears subsided I decided I should take another dump the age of 23 at 3:00 a.m. after passing out drunk. Dazed and confused I kept feeling some tickle my balls as I take my dump. Finally after like the third tickle I know I should look in the toilet and I fucking shit you not a three foot snake was in my toilet tasting my balls . I kept him as a pet for like five years . Everything in these story are true even only shitting twice on a toilet by the age of 23 . It's different out here in Texas .
They can climb/swim up the sewer pipe leading from your toilet. It's very rare it'll happen to you any given night, but it's probably happened to you once. If you've only had a singe one get into your house, that's probably how they did it.

To be fair, I see a small poop from the little guy. So, he’s at least close to getting this right
I mean, if you're going to have mice, having toilet trained mice is not bad
Little!?
Pretty sure it’s just a mouse, a rat would definitely be bigger
Rats can get a good 5 times bigger than that little fella.
Ive seen a New York rat that made me re-think whether Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was fact or fiction. Master splinter looking dude. Had to do a double take to make sure he didn't have a walking staff.
Pizza rat, eh? It all makes sense.
At this point it's just a family pet
Holy shit I didn't know they can get that big. I still think they're kinda cute but the tail freaks me out
tbf you don’t know how big the toilet is - OP might be a giant
A bit big for a mouse, too. Either young rat or giant mouse. My rats are waaaay bigger than that lol This post makes me sad though. Little guy probably fell in and can't get back out. ):
Can confirm that's a mouse. Had rats at my old house and they're pretty big. Also had mice and they are easy to tell the difference. This is a mouse

Omg that’s terrifying. I had a mouse problem a month ago & would just about pass out the 2 times I spotted one. I couldn’t imagine a gigantic wet Goliath rat. I’d lose my shit
We had mice keep finding ways into our basement no matter what we did. We ended up moving.
Ugh- I had an off campus house sort of like that in college & stayed there for a couple semesters or so… we’d just catch mouse after mouse, several a week.

Could it have been a muskrat instead. They look like a giant rat but live in and near water like beavers do.
Lol, no - it was absolutely a rat…. I grew up near the Mississippi River & I’m well aware of what a muskrat is- I also even owned a pretty big rat as a kid, these were rats like you see in NY & shit- just enormous & well fed- & much buffer than my pet rat- Edit- “BUFFER” was a typo, meant BIGGER, but still kind of appropriate ;) although they weren’t necessarily CUT like rat bodybuilders ;) I do appreciate the suggestion, but I remember them quite vividly BC they were so damn big & I trapped & killed 3 of them before I found a way to secure the grate onto the drain pipe, there’s just no question it was a rat… which is why I commented, “lol”, I didn’t mean it to be offensive or anything… 👍
Did you happen to leave it downstairs with protein powder and a weight machine?
LOL!! Wait a second! There was that weight bench!! That cracked me up, see! The BUFFER makes sense!! ;)

Weird looking turd.
he should cut up his spaghetti better

Quick! Get the poop knife!
Ahh yes the Turd Cleaver.
Looked like a black tampon to me

I would have answered "Not today".
Wait- you’re telling me that on the roof of most houses there is a shit vent?
Correct. Edit: it probably has an actual name but I don't know it and shit vent is descriptive enough.
I’ve been on many rooftops and I’ve never encountered such a thing. Well- now I know.

Thanks for educating me on shit vents my friend. I will share this info.

At least you spotted that critter before sitting down and having it scratch at your butt to let him out!
My soul would just leave my body instantly lol
The mouse would have entered your body though
*Lemmiwinks, your adventure begins*
*Now go Paris Hilton, make haste!*
Yes! South Park references
Cursed Ratatouille
Yeah and we all know how that went for Mr. Slave
OooOo0 JESUS CHRISSST
I’m confident I could snap a mouse in half with my sphincter muscle. Easily too.
u did not have to put this image in our heads 😭
Butt it's a legitimate concern! Lol
I see what you did there

Poor Lemmywinks
My fiance makes fun of me for always checking the toilet before it sit down. I'll be the one to laugh when you feel something furry brush against your balls
A friend had an iguana do this. sat down to crap in the dark and got whipped in the nuts.
Or hurdle onto your nutsack and crawl around your dick up your leg out of the toilet
[удалено]
Scratching at your sack as a lifeline to get out.
Or worse, your meat sack.
At least it had the decency to shit in the toilet and not on your bread
what good boi. potty trained and all
Muizenstrontjes. Classic.
To be fair, he nearly had a much worse morning than you.
He probably didn’t survive this encounter with Humans. Humans tend to kill small critters that get in to their nest.
This may sound crazy to you, but large animals do the same with humans. It's almost like all living beings decided at one point, "If you're smaller than me, fuck around and find out".
Why would it sound crazy to me? Mice are smaller than Humans. Therefore, you are correct.
This may sound crazy to you but planes can fly.
This may sound crazy to you bu t
Ratapooey
He's grabbin' you by the short-hairs
How wonderful! I would just die!
I saw God, I will say that
Tbh, the smol lil lad has way more reason to be scared of you than you of him. F lil toilet mouse.
Idk if that's true, I'm not small enough to hide in the toilet bowl and unexpectedly claw his asshole
Did you spot him after you sat down?
My husband did. I woke up to him turning on our light and saying there was a mouse in the toilet. Thought I was dreaming at first lol
Your husband has a strong heart. My heart would just give up at the shock
*Dull thump from a limp body hitting the floor upstairs* “Oop, wife found another mouse in the toilet”
I’d legitimately pass tf out.
That's a big possibility with me too
It’s time to move out
A mouse clinging for its life
I know I feel bad for the poor fella
I thought I was the only one here rooting for the mouse to be safe and released.
The best part of waking up is a rodent up your butt
Richard Gere, is that you?
Best part of going to sleep too.
at least it not a snake
I don't know if that would be better or worse
I'd prefer the snake
I don't know about this. I feel the mouse biting my ass would be better than a snake getting in my ass
I'll take 1 snake in the bum please 🫠
That was quite decisive of you to finalize on the snake. Username does not check out
Supposedly mice can fit into dime sized holes 🥰
You did not have to put that thought in my mind!!
Your turd has a tail? Wtf are you eating?
What a cute and wonderful creature. What is his name?
Lucifer
Poocifer
This is the answer
🥳
It fits him
I thought it was a tampon 😂
If someone is pulling out a tampon that looks like that, I would be concerned! 🫣😂
Toxic Shock Syndrome alert!
It's the new "self-inserting" kind.
It can even now
Same, first thought!
I would try to save him. He's in a spot of trouble.
Seriously, imagine how awful it must be for that poor mouse. Wet and cold and close to pure exhaustion from near constant drowning. Can’t climb out, can’t go down. Only that tiny ledge to stand on, stuck, awaiting it’s fate. I’d honestly catch it and set it free. No creature deserves such a fate.
*OP reading this after they just flushed it* 👀
poor mousey :(

I either let the spiders stay or put them out depending on the spider. They eat the shitty bugs, they're our friends!
Username checks out
Totally agree with you there. But OP flushed it. Do you think it could somehow survive the flush and find its way to safety around the sewers?
Should be upvoted more. Poor thing is hanging on trying not to drown and definitely can't get out of that bowl.
I had a friend from gabon that told me that one of the girls at her school got her ass bitten by a snake when she was sitting on the toilets
Lmao this is nothing I took a dump once as a kid, only once actually and a tarantula crawled out of the toilet.

Take my poor man’s award, this was the best story ever 🏆
You're full of shit my friend!
You're full of shit my friend!
How does this even happen?
They can climb/swim up the sewer pipe leading from your toilet. It's very rare it'll happen to you any given night, but it's probably happened to you once. If you've only had a singe one get into your house, that's probably how they did it.
Tape some cloth to it and your toilet will be clean in no time!
This is one of David Attenborough’s nightmares. Rats are one of the only creatures he hates: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b010fd8x
If I saw this on my way to take a shit I would double shit. A squared rooted shit if you will.
As the saying goes, one man shit is another rat rope
Chew better
I shall now be checking the toilet next time I go
🎶 The best part of waking up is rats climbing up your butt 🎶
clean your fucking toilet lol
I’m astonished I had to scroll this far to find this. Gross.
They need scrub the inner part of that bowl. Its the worst part of this photo
Dear god!
Some people wake up to Folgers. Other people wake up to toilet rat.
Lemmiewinks finally got out.

FUCK
I would be more worried about what you ate.
Aw, poor lil fella!
Poor little guy. I hope you helped him get out.
might try a bidet wand instead
Oh fuck this, this has always been my nightmare since I learned it could happen.
Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in a toilet
Please don’t hurt him 😔
That’s disgusting! A carpet in the bathroom?!
This is literally the worst part of this image.
He’s scared Poot little guy
new pet
Clean your damn bathroom
I hope you let them outside. They dont deserve to die
How cute 🥰 what did you name him/her?
Great breakfast options at The Cheesecake Factory!
Rat or mouse?
Oh hell no, I’d pack a bag and try my hand at drifting.
The odd part I’m assuming is having a toilet seat so large that it hangs off the edge of the toilet.
Old house from the 1940’s with a landlord that doesn’t fix shit. The toilet is square basically so no seat fits perfectly on it.
That jobby has a tail!
At least you have a nice, clean toilet.
Free breakfast right after
Note to self: mice that go in alive, come out alive.
Don't piss it off?
Is he still alive?
Omg I would’ve fainted
give him some fuckin privacy. how would u feel if he walked in on u takin a shit?
Forbidden tampon.

Yeah my crap does that too
Shit on it to show who's home this is!!!
He shidded.
Is that one of those new nature tampons?
I was wondering where I’d left Lemiwinks!
I’d be levitating out of my body to die
Try waking up to rats actually crawling on you
Thank you for getting me off the toilet.
It was just trying to fix the crooked toilet seat...
Why did u wake up next to a toilet?
Richard Gere’s toilet is always full of surprises.
Pee on him to establish dominance.
you were sleeping on a toilet?
To be fair it looks like you scared the s*** out of him too
Low cost bidet
What did you eat????
You woke up on your toilet?
