+SPSFC Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Just received this found log: Found it 07/25/2018 Okay, out caching tonight and found this one....with no ability to repair. It seems some jackwagon decided to urinate in the cache. Needs to be replaced!!!

+Max and 99 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Disgusting! I highly recommend adding a warning to the cache page regarding bodily fluids. Just to cover your liability. Post haste! And why is LadyLaw claiming a find when she obviously didn't sign the log? Just kidding! ? I've heard of this happening before. Thank goodness not to any caches I have to maintain!

+cerberus1 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 We've found a couple that more than "topped" that, but this gives them the reaction they might be looking for. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I have found one like that (and many that had a generally stinky unidentified fluid). There was a bird house in an RV park, with a juice bottle cache container hidden inside. I found and opened it, noticed everything was "wet". Water is not unusual in this kind of container, but inside a birdhouse, I wondered why there was water inside. And as I was retrieving the log, the urine smell hit me. And I was on a trip elsewhere. I was not ready for every contingency. But I had towels, hand wipes, and a small bottle of dish soap. I discarded everything porous, washed and dried everything else, placed a clean log, and put it back together, clean and dry. I wrote to the Cache Owner and told the story. I do not highly recommend "fixing up" other people's caches, especially where there's evidently an issue. But he's a friend of mine, and I had to... "wash up"... anyway. And in my public "Found It" log, I wrote that "it was wet". One of my caches was an ammo box on a rope. Pull it a few feet up into a tree. After FTF, somemuggle wandering the forest placed a poop inside, and returned the cache to its place. The next finder was understandably grossed out. I convinced her to change the log to simply "Muggled", and I archived it. In both cases, I hope, not the reaction that the perps were looking for.

+SPSFC Posted July 25, 2018 Author Share Posted July 25, 2018 I concede - I will never be able to see ammo cans in the same light again. What is scary is this is the third occurrence this month. It may be time to poke the archive button for this hide. Quote Link to comment
+L0ne.R Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) I've found one with feces. Thankfully I could see it from a distance--clear container, and could avoid opening the container. Here's a 2016 forum about this topic that might be of interest. Edited July 26, 2018 by L0ne.R clarity Quote Link to comment

I see that you've now moved it a short distance away, but I bet it will happen again anyway. Clearly someone knows all about your cache and is getting a kick out of messing with it. 1 Quote Link to comment
+JL_HSTRE Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) Bored, drunk, immature geoaware muggles most likely. Edited July 26, 2018 by JL_HSTRE Quote Link to comment
+jellis Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I recently cleaned up a friends cache because someone came by and put dog poop in the local caches. This seems like an angry mischievous cacher or a muggle who signed up to just ruin them. Quote Link to comment
+BCandMsKitty Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 (edited) We found an ammo box cache and when we opened it, there was a dead chipmunk inside. And it was locked shut so there was no chance for it to have gotten in on it's own. One can only hope that whoever did that came to an untimely end after to help purify the gene pool.

Are you sure it wasn't a hamster? I ask because, after a certain amount of time has passed, it becomes hard to tell the difference. In the event that it was a hamstercacher who exercised poor judgment in selecting a cache that isn't found often enough to be a good gamepiece in our little trade item sub-game, then I sincerely apologize on behalf of all responsible hamstercachers for the unpleasantness that you experienced. 1 Quote Link to comment
