Ever find something odd in your engine bay?

ok, well a couple months ago (why I'm telling this NOW, I don't know), I went to my gf's aunt's wedding-party thing ( ) and after it was over, my gf's cousin was having a problem with her 99 or so accord v6 ... so naturally I get over there ... ;P

apparently it wouldn't turn on, but all the lights on the dash were blinking and such... the power steering didn't work either.

ok, so I pop the hood ... it was dark, so I could barely see anything ... but something smelled funny. So I checked around some more while someone brought a flashlight ... then when I shined the light in the engine bay for a couple seconds, I saw it ...

a rat ended up getting stuck inbetween the power steering pulley and belt and got hella mutated with its guts spilled all over

...

Years ago my boss went to start up his truck and he heard an awful,,,,,,,RAWWWWWWWWWWW MEOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.!!!!!!!!!! He said it was the worst sound ever. So he got out and popped the hood and a cat was all entangled into the belts and got cut up by the fan. He called the Animal Control Officer and she got all bitchy with him because it was her day off. He told her he was going to put it in a bucket of water and drown it. She ended up comming outwith a pissy attitude, mainly cause she had to work on a saturday, stupid union employees.
