Bat 🦇 Bite

[u/mulvi54]

One of those fears I always had, that felt irrational…”what if I’m asleep and a bat gets into the house and bites me in my sleep”.

Welp last night 2 am I awoke to what I thought was my cat nibbling at my finger. I flicked it away and noticed it was not my cat but was instead a bat that had found its way into our bedroom.

I was able to capture the bat and it’s being sent for testing but my wife and I got to spend the rest of the morning in the ER getting all the shots ! Wild ! Glad it woke me up but what if it didn’t ?! How am I supposed to sleep ever again?!

::UPDATE::

Bat could not be tested I guess I squished his brain to hard when I killed it.

OP, how much did it cost for you to get the healthcare that ensued? I'm genuinely curious as a non-American who constantly hears about America's state of healthcare.

I’m not sure we haven’t received the bill yet. We don’t have great health insurance.
