I had a car hold its position for 6 months during the pandemic. It became occupied by rats, which was fun to deal with.

They gathered some apples from a nearby tree, and apparently had set up a hard cider production facility.

One of my favorite fun facts is that it’s nearly impossible to get a hamster drunk - their foraging method is to get, eg, grains and fruits and store them piled up underground in their burrow, where they of course ferment, so hamsters’ livers have become unreasonably good at metabolizing alcohol.
