That happened to my uncle once, but it was a squirrel and it latched on to his balls to pull himself out of the water. Lol, he got pulled out of the water alright! Then it was pure comedy trying to get the wet freaked out fur ball out of the house. Pure pandemonium with my uncle screaming, the women shrieking and grandpa with the broom knocking shit over trying to herd the squirrel to the door downstairs. Laughed for days. Figured it came in by way of the vent pipe.
That's some great outdoors shit
Why does the vent pipe provide access to the toilet which should go right to the sewer or septic tank?
Toilets, sinks, tubs and showers all work better if connected to a vent pipe. Kinda like when you put your finger over a straw in a glass of liquid and pull it out. It stays in the straw.
Is this a thing in places that don't have cold winters? I have access to the pipes under my toilets and they go straight down into the basement floor (where they go even deeper to avoid the frost and join the sewer). The pipes are thick (put both hands around them and your fingers won't touch) so the draining water should always have access to air from below which is stopped from coming in the house by the U shaped pipe beneath all sinks and toilets.
