12/09/2004 Entry: "Truepenny's Bats"

Truepenny had bats in her attic, and it wasn't easy finding out what to do about it. "When he opened the attic door, he found two bats lying on the floor at the foot of the stairs, rather like Whatsisface in the Paths of the Dead. The way is shut. We assumed they were ex-bats, because, hello, lying there not moving rather than hanging from something, so, having corralled various enterprising quadrupeds who would've liked to help, Mirrorthaw gets the gloves, the bucket, and the piece of cardboard and goes up to deal with them. I lurk in the hallway. 'Oh,' he says. 'They're not dead.'"

Batworld was the site that finally helped her.
