A similar story went like this. Some guy hears a cat in his fireplace
chimney. Calls the fire dept who comes out and start disassembling his
chimney a bit. THey here the crying but can't find the cat. They keep
taking it apart until deep down they find a frog that apparently can cry
like a cat when it is under stress. Wonder who paid for the new chimney.
True story.

Odd I imagine, but when I went into the bathroom a few minutes ago and
lifted the lid, a large, 4-5" red spotted frog (guessing Cuban tree frog)
was looking back at me. Go ahead and laugh, I still am. I stood there
stunned for a few moments, then tried to scoop it out with a glass candle
holder. Before I could, it swam back through the hole. I'm guessing it
came in through the pipe that goes through the roof, as we've seen them in
those pipes before, hanging out Kilroy style. So, toilets haven't been
used
since, and frog hasn't popped back up yet. Should I wait and see if it
does
and try to catch it again? Assume it's down in the septic tank now? Can
it
get back up into the vent pipe if that's how it got in? FWIW, this is
central FL, and in a remarkable cold snap right now. I guess it got in to
warm up. I'm confident it came in through the toilet, somehow, but how I
don't know. We'll hold it for now, hoping we can somehow rescue the poor
thing. Any tips welcome, teasing and laughing understood.
