Smelly Cat

Over the weekend Zach had the pleasure of giving Lucy a tomato bath after she encountered what she must have assumed to be a very smelly cat.  Unfortunately, this smelly cat a.k.a. skunk doesn't like to make friends with too many yellow furry slobbering wild beasts.

Last night our neighbors, Steve & Carol, invited us over for a prime view of the smelly cat.  This little skunk fell into their window well during the recent rainstorm and was stumped on how to get out.  While he contemplated his next move we had the pleasure of viewing him from behind a glass window.  It was like being at a zoo because we literally had a close-up window view of the stinky fella.

The neighbors managed to free him CAREFULLY from his temporary zoo holdings and off he goes wondering right back into our yard.  Zach did an amazing impression of a drunk monkey, hooting and hollering at the skunk to try and scare him out.  Not detoured what-so-ever the skunk stood his ground and continued to forage for bugs in and out of our yard.  Needless to say we kept Lucy inside and far away from her new smelly friend.
