    Wow holy crap. My cat ran into the room, running around like a retard as usual. I thought it was just high on catnip, but then it started scratching my pc case so I'm like holy crap whats wrong with the cat and took it downstairs and locked my room. So I'm sitting there and then suddenly BAM, it sounds like something hit one of my fans. I think man, the cat must've pounced onto the case and dislodged the fan, I'll fix it later. However I noticed the noise kept happening every 20-30 seconds. So thinking I could just remove the cace and fix it by hand without turning the pc off I took of the side case and noticed something in the corner. I took the flashlight and went HOLY ****.
    See Pic1
    So I immediately shut the pc off (thank god it didnt short circuit anything). The little bastard was behind a 120mm fan and had no way of exiting the case (I have no idea how it got behind a fan, it's a cm stacker case).
    See pic2
    Finally I had to rip the fan out and remove the chipmunk with tongs and a glove (the ****er was biting my glove the entire time). Here's how the chipmunk ran into my pc case:
    See pic 3
    And the little bastard cat:

    I wonder how history would've been altered had, instead of a bug, a chipmunk caused the first computer malfunction...

    That's hilarious. How'd the Chipmunk get in your house without anyone noticing?

    Cat carried it inside in its mouth, drooped it on the floor and started chasing it around my room (she also brought live birds/mice before, but not a chipmunk).
