Summary
Tall tale about sharing whisky with a talking rat.
An old bachelor called Bob bought a bottle of whisky for his usual Saturday night visitors, but the weather was so bad that nobody came. He began to drink the whisky alone. As he told the story afterwards, a great rat came in under the door. He gave it saucers full of whisky, and it said it didn't give a damn for any cat in Sandwood.
