We have had a critter of some sort getting in our back yard at night. Which of course causes Sadie and Pooh Bear to go crazy sniffing and barking and baying. We get up early. Hubbie gets up at 5 a.m. to get ready for work. I let them out this morning at 5:15 a.m. to go pee and the immediately picked up on a scent and started in with their yipping and carrying on. I have to make them come back inside. Now we have to wait until 7 a.m. to go back out. The neighbors don't get up till 7. Hopefully the scent will fade a bit by then.
I've got my trap back out and am going to set it tonight and see if I can catch the critter. It is a cage type trap that won't hurt the animal. Someone said to use Sardines as bait. I'm going to try this tonight.
Hubbie asked what if I catch the neighbors cat. I said I would take him (still in the trap) and put him on their front door step. He said, yea right. He is right, I probabably would not do that, I am a chicken. If it is a racoon or possom I can ask animal rescue where to release it.
