The mouse that found my cats food bowl and shits all over it every night for the last few days is absolutely a pest... I hate that little cunt. :/

Animals who invade your space and fuck up your shit are pests... That's really all there is to it.

I once heard from a gorilla that humans will call a pest anything that eats anything humans eats, or eats anything that eats what is eaten by what humans eat.
