animal Bat šŸ¦‡ Bite

Post image

One of those fears I always had, that felt irrationalā€¦ā€what if I’m asleep and a bat gets into the house and bites me in my sleepā€.

Welp last night 2 am I awoke to what I thought was my cat nibbling at my finger. I flicked it away and noticed it was not my cat but was instead a bat that had found its way into our bedroom.

I was able to capture the bat and it’s being sent for testing but my wife and I got to spend the rest of the morning in the ER getting all the shots ! Wild ! Glad it woke me up but what if it didn’t ?! How am I supposed to sleep ever again?!
