I hate "things in the toilet" stories. It is so hard to pee and watch for intruders at the same time.
The owner of an Edmond, Oklahoma home discovered a squirrel swimming in the toilet.
It was one of the most bizarre requests for help these 9-1-1 dispatchers have ever heard.
DISPATCHER: What's going on there ma'am?
CALLER: I have some kind of animal in the toilet in my bathroom.
DISPATCHER: Like, what's it look like?
CALLER: Well, it's gray. That's all I can tell you. I didn't look real good because it scared me to death. I'm sorry.
DISPATCHER: But it's not like one of your animals like a cat or something?
CALLER: No. My cat is in my office, behaving herself.
DISPATCHER: Okay ma'am. Well, I will get a police officer over there to see if they can help you figure out what's going on for you okay?
CALLER: Okay. Thank you. I appreciate it.
Officer Derek Kennedy was the first to respond.
"As soon as I saw the squirrel I knew I needed back up immediately," joked Kennedy.
[...]
Police speculate it may have crawled through the sewer drain.
Animal control officers say these cases are extremely rare.
But if you're worried about a squirrel jumping out of your toilet, you might want to look before you leak.
