Default Not sure if this is the right forum, but some critter is in my house

It has a medium high-pitched, short chirp or cheep, one-time, stops a
bit then repeats, all times of the day or night then stops for
lengthy periods. I thought chipmunk, but they are usually more
repetitive vocally when they get going. I can't pinpoint where this
is, I have a cat so it is probably hiding, suspect the heat ducts but
not sure because the sound seems to alternate between the dining room
and spare bedroom, kitchen or back hall, it is hard to track the
sound. This has been going on for about a week now. I thought I
might be hearing things, but my daughter was here and heard it and
asked what it was.

I bought a havahart live trap for smallish creatures, had a dickens
of a time getting it set, daughter figured out the final step, and
loaded it with sunflower seeds and a peanut. Nothing has happened
yet.


I'll try to be more quiet. But could you leave out some peanut butter
and jelly and a couple slices of bread so I can make myself a PB &
jelly sandwich ?


No, your grubby paw will break my new trap :-).
