Beware the Carpet Piranha!

Is there a dangerous creature living in your home? Your innocent pet may really be a carpet piranha (yappitus chompus), whose razor-sharp teeth can tear the flesh from an ankle in as little as three weeks, with time for naps. Its beige coloring helps it blend into the background, giving its victims no warning of its sudden attack.

    I don’t have carpet in my house does that mean I’m safe?

      They can chameleon-ate to match hardwood.

    “Three weeks?”

    I’m guessing that we get distracted by rubber balls and walkies easily.
