  Now tell me, all you ladies out there.  If a frog jumped over your
foot at 3.15 am, what would you do?

  How about

1] scream, and
2] wake your husband to deal with the frog?

  Yes, seems right to me too.

  So, when a frog jumped over my foot at 3.15 am, I

1] screamed, and
2] woke my wife to deal with the frog.

  As for Nanki Poo and Minke, one of whom clearly had brought in the
frog, they slept through all the excitement, including the twenty
minutes trying to catch it.

That's where you went wrong you see. You should have screamed then woken your
husband to deal with the frog. If you haven't got a husband, you deal with it
yourself - quietly and without screaming. There is no need to wake your wife. I
dunno, anyone would think you are a Dave ;-)

Oi. I wouldn't be so cool if it were a mouse in the bed. I'd probably freak
clean out. Frogs are different. They're just, well...so harmless. Unless you're
a fly or you believe that stuff about warts I guess.

Nikki has brought a live vole into bed in the middle of the night a few
times. It was when she was still hoping to teach me how to hunt. Did she
actually think I would get up in the middle of the night to hunt? I didn't
exactly scream, but I shouted NIKKI! and flapped the covers over so the poor
vole fell to the floor, where it soon met its end at Nikki's paws.

Ooo. I used to dream something icky was in the covers and would wake up all
creeped out. I'm sure Nikkie was thinking, "Well, okay, Meowmie's just not a
NOCTURNAL hunter. Maybe there's hope for her yet."

Ugh, I just hate it when Vino brings cockroaches into bed.  It only happens
maybe twice a year, but still...I'm just glad that most of the lizards are
downstairs, so he's yet to bring me a lizard in bed.

The gang moved a large stack of wood away from the house on Thursday.
Yesterday, Squeakers found, caught, and brought in a grub that was
scurrying (?) to safety in the enclosure.  Fortunately I wasn't around.
 Jim praised him, told him what a great hunter he is, and got rid of
the grub before I could see it.  Not that I'm afraid of grubs, but my
reaction would be less than stellar and Jim knew it.

If I remember correctly, toads (not frogs) are supposed to cause
warts.  At least that is what I was told as a very young child.

Yeah they *are* wee-wee machines. I'm glad humans don't do that everytime we
feel threatened.

But we DO as children, but then  it's 'trained' out of us by our parents
(and embarrassment), so now it takes a MUCH bigger fright to scare the
wee-wee out of us.

To me, a frog is no big deal.  I'd wet my hands under some water so that I
would not harm its delicate skin and catch it and put it outside.  For a
toad, I wouldn't have to wet my hands.  I catch lizards all the time when
Cinder brings them inside. I take them out and let them go.

It works for me!  Fortunately, mine are all indoor cats; no surprises
coming in through the kitty door.

ROFL!! NP and M just wanted to liven up your lives a bit. As for who
disposes of it; it depends on who is equiped to handle it. So, just
what do You dispose of? A mouse? spider?

Sophie once brought in a frog. I was out of the sitting-room but DH Bob
and hid friend were in there on the computers and when I went back in
Sophie had joined them and right in the middle of the room was sitting a
big frog. The men hadn't seen it, I know they hadn't because Bob would
have shouted me in panic. I got the door mat from the front door and
shooed the frog out the patio window. Sophie watched me with great
interest.

I'm also called for wasps, bees and spiders.
