It swooped, and I leaped and caught it.  Oh, the pride I felt!  Why, I couldn't wait to get back up onto the porch to show mom my prize.  I layed it down carefully and then let mom know I wanted in.  She came to the door, but she didn't even turn on the light to look.  Bummer! - Oh, well, she did ask me why I was licking my chops.  (Must have had a bit of blood in my mouth.)</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>In the morning we arose as usual.  Mom started to open the back door, but she faltered.  I began to bark to try to tell her, "Look at my trophy.  See what a good hunter I am."  She just froze and kept staring out at the porch. She even took me out the front door to tinkle.  I had to stay in the house, while mom went all the way around the house, through the gate, to see what I had killed.  She even poked at it.</I></div> <bR> <div> <I>Did she let me get near it again.  Noooo!  She swept it up, and put it in the trash.  My prize, gone without another sniff.  I must say mom did make up for her faux pas by petting me and praising me for the heroic effort it must have taken to catch a BAT. </I></div> <bR> <div> <I>Rosie's Mom did check with the Vet and was assured that since her Shots were all up to date there was no risk to her health.
