Re: Critters in general
So, I was heading out to the grill and turned on the lights.
BIG ol' skunk sitting at the back door!
No pix.
I have no problem with critters walking through the yards as long as they stay away from the gahdin stuff.
I'll have the Guys talk to Le Pew. I don't need/want any heart attacks here.

House cats kill more critters than thought
That mouse carcass Kitty presents you with is just the tip of a very bloody iceberg. When researchers attached kittycams to house cats, they found a secret world of slaughter.
While only 30% of roaming house cats kill prey — two animals a week on average — they are still slaying more wildlife than previously believed, according to research from the University of Georgia.
Cats aren't just a danger to others, they're also a danger to themselves. The cats in the study were seen engaging in such risky behavior as crossing roadways (45%), eating and drinking things they found (25%), exploring storm drains (20%) and entering crawl spaces where they could become trapped (20%).
