Story of the rat in the barbecue vs the weims.

One fateful evening a tree rat decided to visit the barbecue at the same time the weims were going out for their pm walk.Rose,' the nose', was the first to smell/hear the rat in the barbecue. After persistent tracking around the barbecue I decided to assist Rose by opening up the barbecue doors which at the same time the rat made a quick exit. So now it is a daily ritual of the weims, notably Rose, to check the barbacue for any more rats! These pictures show the

persistent weim moves with a thorough check of the barbecue, from the front, side and back.


All four weims converge on the barbecue. Rose is near the back of barbecue with Lily, Winston and Cervelo at the front.











After I opened the barbecue doors Cervelo immediately stuck his head inside. Winston following his moves on the sideline letting Cervelo do all the work.












Cervelo continues to sniff around the inside.















Winston looks at me as if to say, Now what is he doing. Cervelo moves further into the barbecue.













Winston : How long is this going to take?



























Rose finishing her check at the back goes to the front inside of the barbecue with Cervelo now eye balling the counter, maybe a sniff or two.Winston watching to see if any action need to take place.














Cervelo deciding no action on the top joins his Mom inside the barbecue in case she has found something he missed.Winston continues to wait for the next move.
















Rose moves to the back of the barbecue since the front has been thoroughly searched with no rat in site. She is determined to find a rat, any rat...





Rose back to the front again, her tail wagging in anticipation. That rat has to be in here.








Cervelo returns again to check with Rose to see if there has been any developments.
