Hi Jeff,

haha... While we are not 'hoarders' we do have a lot of stuff we could get rid
of and probably never notice as missing. :)

hahaha yes, parts are no fun to find... we've found some disgusting looking
parts "around" over the years.  With 2 dogs and 2 cats, you often can't place
blame either... could be from any one of them :)  I think the worst of that
was an adult rabbit... quite dead.  I think the dogs must have got that one.

I think the worst thing I ever saw though was when we were living in
Louisville, KY, maybe in 1990 or so... we were there for maybe 9 or 10 years.
The house had a really neat stone wall built a long time ago, that chipmunks
loved to hang around in, I guess because of all the nooks and crannies...
After we were in that house for maybe a few months I started noticing
'chipmunk tails' all over the place...  We only had one cat then so I knew who
the culprit was :(

At least Pete (our cat) didn't bring the guts, etc. inside.  Yech..

Take care,
Janis
