There was a terrible smell in our kitchen for a couple of weeks that got worse and worse by the day. I was routing through the cupboards and figured out that the small was coming from underneath. I took the plinth off to have a look and found a decomposing young rabbit, half eating by maggots.
One of the cats had brought it it and it must have got away and squeezed through a tiny hole under the units to get away, but then couldn't get back out. Po0r bunrab 
Our cats have become so lazy. They bring live stuff in, plonk it on the floor and bugger off for an 18 hour nap
Our house is so full of damned mice, we can hear them scurrying about the wall cavities of an evening.
We've just had to have our tumble dryer rebuilt after a very large mouse took up residence inside it and eventually ate it's way through the belt. It had gained access to the supply of wild bird food in the utility room and had hoarded 4 dyson cylinders full of nuts inside the dryer. The repair man found it dead inside, looked like it had gorged itself and got so fat it could no longer squeeze out of the machine. I knew it was in there but had to feign complete surprise when the guy took the machine apart. He said he'd never seen anything like it. Amazingly they fixed it under warranty.
Anyway, my phantom Mk7 R is unsurprisingly still sat at stage 2
