Houseguest.......

Uninvited and surely UNWANTED!!!!! Yes, this not so small raccoon has been living with us,

in our attic, at the lake for at least the last 9 months, if not longer. Drew first heard sounds in the attic back in February when he was staying out there. Thinking it was a rat he avoided telling me, knowing I would no longer go out to the house. I am no dummy!! Jimmy was sure whatever it was was simply running around on our roof, not actually coming and going from the attic. WRONG! Last weekend while looking around upstairs they met face to face. That was enough to make him quickly close the door in the crawl space and come home to locate a trap. Armed with cat food and a cage he headed off this weekend..alone...to catch our guest. Success, early this morning he was in the trap looking slightly guilty!
After a 10 mile drive down the road he was released into the wilderness, hopefully to find a new home to invade. Next time friendly critter, please call for reservations.
