If you’ve been following my blog, you should know what Chester’s ‘failed mission’ is. If you don’t know, never mind…keep on reading.
For weeks now, Chester has been working as a night security guard in our home. We didn’t ask him to. He volunteers himself.

He’s been dedicating his leisure night guarding our house because of one intruder: Mr. RAT!!!
I myself saw Mr. Rat twice at our car porch but I have no idea why Chester is so interested in sniffing my car out (especially the front side).
Fast forward yesterday morning, I was watching F1 at about 3am when I heard dogs barking at our backyard. Being a scary cat myself, I wake my mom and there she goes checking the sound out. Just then I saw Mr. Rat come running in from out kitchen door to our dining area. WTH! How did Mr. Rat come into our house??
Mr. Rat hides himself behind the piano for a very long time. So long that my mom and maid were fast asleep at the dining table waiting for shy Mr. Rat to come out. They tried a couple of ways such as using stick, spray insect repellent and lure him with food but were to no avail.
With all the excitement happening in the dining area, Chester had no idea at all because we kept him away at our sitting hall. But Mr Rat is too adventurous. He decided to visit Chester and there goes all the barking, chasing and yelling. Chaos!!! Mom, maid and Chester were all trying to arrest Mr. Rat at once.
Ohmygod it was so hilarious looking at Chester. There was Mr. Rat scampering in front of him but due to the lack of paw-tiles floor friction, Chester only manages to dash clumsily. In the end, Mr. Rat runs back to the piano and into our toilet. Then from toilet he runs to our kitchen and maid finally got hold of him. Poor Mr. Rat was deported back to our backyard.
With all the exciting drama unfold you must be wondering where I was eh? Sis, grandma and me were safely tuck inside our bedroom.
Dad said he heard shrieking but were too lazy to get up.
What time did we sleep? 4.30am!
Initially we thought Mr. Rat from car porch is the same Mr. Rat that intrudes our home but yesterday night, Chester and maid saw Mr. Rat car porch again. Wow! How come we have so many rat visitors lately? Our house has never been infiltrate by rat before wor.

rats are usually attracted to dark hidden spaces and food sources. maybe its time for some outdoor spring cleaning. also invest in one or two rat traps.
