We have bats here in Austin, and they do migrate to Mexico when it gets cold. I"m not sure all bats migrate south, but maybe they do. Perhaps if this is a bat, he/she got left behind. Most bats have rabies, so if it is a bat, be careful and DO NOT TOUCH IT, even if it is dead!
Rats will create that rustling sound too - and if it is a rat, he/she probably won't come out during the day or night.

Surprise! I came home from work today and Scott was HOME!!!!!!!!!!! He was told he could come home for a few days this morning and he lied to me all day lol. Anyways he went out this afternoon and searched around the storage shed and there was nothing there. He closed the door and neither of us have heard anything yet, so maybe whatever it was left!
I did research a bit today and all bats in Saskatchewan either migrate south or they burrow for the winter in cave-like areas like old mine sites. How well do rats climb? It would have to get up to the third floor outside.

I think that I'd just get some good mouse/rat poison and put it in a far corner of the shed where Layla can't reach it. You may not have a problem but it will be there just in case.

Also, if it were a rat, you would see rat poop - little bullet shaped pellets - not as big as a bullet, of course, but shaped like that. If you don't find any rat poop, then that is probably not what it was. Yes, rats can climb. We have tree rats here in Texas - yes, they live in trees.
