*nods* that does sound a better way to go than poisoned food or drowning.
I remember when we had rats years ago, the pest control guy came and put poison down. I was a little hesitant about the idea. Don;t like the thought of anything going through a slow and painful death. Bastard lied to me and said, it's a pretty quick way for them to go. I being stupid and a little too willing to believe, let him put the stuff down.
There was a juvenile rat in the yard a few days later; clearly in a bad way. Just sitting there and occassionally moving a little, stretching itself out and then curling back into itself. The it started crawling off towards the edge of the yard, slow and painful looking movements. Seemed to be really having to drag itself. Then it was just lying on its side. Still moving a little. twitching every so often. I had to go out, and when I came back it was still there. Still moving a little. Not dead yet.
I killed it in the end with a fuck-off big rock. *slight shudder*
