What do I do for a living? I rescue BATS!

ravenray

Just kidding, that isn't what I do for a living but I did rescue a bat today!  So we have two resident bats who live outside one of our windows at my work.  I discovered them last week.  They are so cute!  However, for the last few days we have been missing one of them.  Well I found him today.  He was hanging upside down in our kitchen.  Earlier that day I had been in there making tea with my coworker and we never saw him.  But when I was getting ready for lunch I found him today!   He is the cutest thing ever!  We set him free and he was NOT happy to be moved.  Hopefully he won't come back because I am not here during the week so I wouldn't be able to save him   But I got pictures!  So ladies and my FI I present to you BAT!

Look at how cute he is!!!! 

So this isn't all about me tell me your animal rescue story!

I think bats are cute! How did you catch him? I think I would be pretty scared if I discovered a bat indoors.

I think most people might already know my rescue story, because I've told it before.I found a super friendly kitten outside of my house on a below freezing night. I could see his ribs, and he was really filthy. I took him inside and fed him. We saw him on a missing cat poster and called the people. They lied and said they already found their kitten. I don't know why they didn't want him. He was really nice. We were going to keep him, but that didn't work out. My roommate originally said she was okay with him staying, but she never was. She just told our other roommate to tell us she didn't want the cat to live there. I found him a new home with a nice couple, though.

I totally think bat rescuer should somehow make it on your resume.  How awesome.

Aww he's so cute!!  We had a bat get into BF's cottage once, but he just didn't want to leave.  It took forever to get it back outside.
