It's happened to me before. The remedy was to simply pick the frog up out of the toilet, with a plastic bag, and toss it outside. I got lucky.
Last night it happened again. I had a Jim Carey moment as I was relieving myself whilst simultaneously popping up from being startled by a googley eyed cuban tree frog that just happened to make its way into the second story toilet. Things got wet.
I managed to stop myself but couldn't hold it any longer. Those of you who have tried to stop mid-stream know exactly what I'm talking about. Unfortunately, it was 4am, and I got the genius idea to aim at the froggy thinking it would reconsider its mistake and crawl back down the drain. It leaped out at me (I guess because I was the tallest thing in the bathroom) and I dodged, thus, getting more things... wet. As I finished up, it just stared at me for a while. It then leaped into the bathtub. I slammed the tub door closed after it.
This gave me time to concoct yet another genius strategy. I would just blast it with water from the shower head until slid down the drain. 荒い水作戦発つ.
I fired up the shower head and to my amazement only a small bit of water shot out. Perhaps the damned froggies were still clogging the drain. I was shit out of options so I aim the tiny little stream of water at little beast. It seemed as if I was only pissing it off. It began to hop in the corner of the wall from left to right making its way up to ceiling where it could hop no more.
Alright screw this. I pulled out a rag and began to try to knock it down when ピョン it hops right at me. I manage to slap it away only inches from my face. It cowered behind the toilet. Now I had it.
I found a plastic bag, opened it, and set it at one side of the toilet, I then prodded the froggie with a towel rack from the other side. The froggy gladly hopped into the bag which I promptly tossed out the window... of the second story bathroom.
Anyone else have any experiences with these tree frogs? Any similar occurrences?
Yes I did clean the bathroom afterwards.
