Move to a farm
We have a rat problem in our backyard. They’re big and they walk around in the middle of the day…while we’re out there playing. “Next door neighbor A” called an exterminator that put traps down. He was a real pro. Still have rats so we decided to buy some poison. Our neighbor’s in the duplex on the other side of the house both have cats…that come in our yard. How do I know? Because there is cat shit in our yard everyday. And do they know they’re shitting in our yard? Yes. And do they know that we know that they know they’re shitting our yard? Yes. So, being thoughtful, we told both neighbors that we’re going to be putting rat poison down. “Neighbor B” was fine. “Neighbor C” is a fucking idiot. She came over asking if we’d put a piece of wood up on our driveway gate so HER CAT wouldn’t be tempted to go in our yard. Since the other side of our house has no fence I told her that it doesn’t make much sense to do that. She then suggested we call the city since the rats are a nuisance to “everybody”. Actually, the rats aren’t in her yard so she’s not being bothered at all. But besides the rats in our yard…you know what else is a nuisance? HER FUCKING CATS coming in our yard and SHITTING.
And why is it ok for a cat to shit in a neighbor’s yard but not a dog? Is it just the size? If a neighbor’s dog was shitting in my yard there would be NO ARGUMENT about making it stop.
Our neighbor called the city because she wants her cats to be allowed to shit in our yard without the threat of being near rat poison. Idiot. This is same person that said, “Well, people in Florida don’t have the same consciousness as people in Oregon” regarding “Neighbor B’s” visiting father from FLA that smoked, of all evils, Camel’s.
Christ, one more thing…this lady has to call and clap every night to try and get her cat back INSIDE her house because it doesn’t want to go in. Take a fucking hint.
Only in Portland.
