Both mouse and frog were rescued this morning around 6:40AM, after found in the deep end of a pool.
If you haven't already, have you considered installing a few small ramps around the pool for animals to climb out when they fall in? You can find some simple cheap-ish ones on amazon like this one: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hGTaHIS3L._AC_UF1000,1000_QL80_DpWeblab_.jpg

That’s a good idea!
His friend, the frog. This guy was found swimming near the mouse.
That’s a toad!
Is it? I don’t usually deal with frogs and toads. We tend to own cats, dogs, and occasionally some birds.
Yup and they aren’t as aquatic as frogs are so it’s good you pulled it out!
You're a toad!
aren't frogs stupid and try to shove anything in their mouth?
I...uhh...nm. friends.
I didn’t consider the mouse as his potential breakfast. Ouch.
You don't have friends that do that?
I do. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Nah I was that friend but then I quit drinking.
Your username does not check out then.
Smart move!
Beautiful 😍
I like that you specified it was the deep end, as if the mouse would stand more of a chance in 4ft of water as opposed to 6ft
Edit: i suppose you're probably mentioning it for the proximity to the stairs but this is funnier
The pool cleaning device is usually in the shallow end in the mornings. It has a tube that leads down from the wall. The mouse might have stood a chance if it was able to climb that tube.
I wonder what Aesop would have to say about this.
Did you find little car too? It's possible Mr Toad was drunk driving again like in the wind in the Willows
😆
Rats and frogs. Hell yeah
