Most people prefer not to look at the contents of their toilet, but a St. James woman had no choice when the contents of her toilet tried to escape. Angela Campbell said her dogs were acting strange early Wednesday morning. She started hearing loud noises coming from the toilet. "It basically sounded like a bowling ball flopping inside of a toilet. The things I was envisioning in my head were monsters," she said. When she went and opened the toilet, she discovered not monsters, but a squirrel clinging to the bowl and smelling extremely bad, she said. "It basically was caked with whatever was inside the pipes, from wherever it was coming from," she said. Campbell said she removed the squirrel out using barbecue tongs and washed the creature in the bathtub. The animal was very docile, she said.

Luckily the moose stayed in the main line.

The moose should have told you to stay in the pipe.

I had a dead one in the toilet just a few months ago. Figure it came in through the vent pipe from the roof - used to be a squirrel that would knock on the pipe until I chased him off - guess he finally got in. Hope he enjoyed the trip cause it didn’t end well for him.
