Dallas Has a Rat Problem, and It May Be Getting Worse by Clinton Crockett Peters

Dallas Has a Rat Problem, a... It began with the smell. Something like cooked meat with kimchi, coating her furniture and clothes. Thinking it was mildew invading her ducts, Casey blasted the AC, and that worked for two days. Then she wondered if her four cats were peeing overtime.

Leon Bridges Comes Home by Jeremy Hallock

Mentally, the connection is made: My feelings trigger a response, be it hugs or milk or simply that I am heard.
