This story reminded me of the garter snake's nest I discovered under a tarp covering a mound of compost in my driveway. I've since used the compost to refill my raised beds, so it won't happen again, but it was pretty funny. It was less funny when a juvenile snake got in the house and my cats took turns playing "whack-a-mole" with it. (I carried it back outside and reunited it with its family.) I (or the cats) would have killed a rat on sight. (((Shudder)))
