too afraid to look............

There is something dead in my dog house I think. I glanced over and saw a pile of what looks like either dad rats or dead kittens. I am too afraid to get close enough to determine. Whatever it is, I am not seeing movement. I would think if it was rats, there would only be one, and it appears there is more than one, which leads me to believe it is kittens. I don't know what to do, and it is freaking me out. I am such a chicken, all I can do is stand on my deck and try to see what it is.
Whatever it is, must be moved. I will call my son and tell him to come visit and to bring a shovel. He is a bigger wuss than me, but being my child he owes me I think.
This is not good blog material, but what can I say? I cannot leave whatever it is just sitting in there.
If it is kittens I will cry, if it is rodents, I will barf. That's all I know.
