Malsua 1,422 Posted March 21, 2012 My can has a new tooth puncture in it from last week. I didn't take a picture but I suspect one bite and he got a good whiff of the Ammonia all over the inside and decided to dine elsewhere. I haven't seen one yet, but with this weather, they are certainly out and about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
