Don't let the cats eat the rats, Marie. The rats still contain the
poison and it is still deadly.
Have you tried the bucket method, where you put water in the bottom and
a ramp with bait on the top?

They don't seem tempted by the corpses, but rat doesn't seem high on
anyone's palatibility chart around here. In the past I've seen dead
rats lie around for a long time.

The bucket method works on mice, but rats can jump out of any bucket I
own. These are big suckers. Nasty.
