OMG, you made me remember the "gifts" Cooper and Emma used to bring to me in the middle of the night. I had an older home in the woods. One night I woke to the creepiest very loud shreiking, and it was close. Flipped on the bedside light and a MOLE streaked off of my leg to the floor and then behind the dresser. Poor thing. It took me, both cats and both dogs and hour to get that mole into a shoe box (amazingly in puncture free condition) and back outside. There were more than a few mouse chasing incidents in the middle of the night as well. Those are gifts I would rather not receive. A belt would be nice, though.
