True story.
I once had rodent damage to my right front strut and upper control arm. Damn squirrel decided to store his nuts in the rubber boot of my strut. Somehow it caused the strut and control arm to go out. He also ate half of the boot, to boot! Damn fuck nut cost me $666 and some change. I think that squirrel was the devil. If I ever find it I'm gonna torture it.
