What is the weirdest thing your tenants have left behind in your property and how did you deal with it?

[Christopher Barclay]

I sold a house about a year ago and we manage it for the owner while we were rehabbing it the old owner that lost the house would come over and do some work like cut the grass pick up trash and it got to a point were we told him not to come around. Well we did not see him for a cpl of months moved the new tenants in and about a month later the tenant called complaining there was a racoon or something in the attic. We go up there with flash light and you will not beleive this the guy that lost the house had a bed, mini fridge, chair, electrical work, electric griddle, and a cat living up in the attic. I could not beleive what I was looking at we actually had to evict this guy from the property because of some BS mail that he had coming to the property.
