Hum... a little TOO Wild America over here.

Just a little update on our wild critters...... as cute as they are and as fun as it is to watch Chris feed them at night, we seemed to have gotten a pretty brave raccoon in our midst. The large one in the videos has moved on and now a much smaller one has been showing up every night and is getting way to brave with Prissy. The other morning, Chris saw it go up to Prissy while she was eating food out of her bowl and pull the bowl away from her to eat. Yeah...... so...... unfortunately, he's been having to take extra measures to warn this raccoon that he needs to stay off the back porch..... by scaring it with a paintball gun. Obviously, we don't want to hurt the guy, but he's REALLY not getting the hint and we're really worried that Prissy is going to snap and attack it......and Prissy will lose. EVERY night and sometimes early in the morning, I hear the lovely sounds of popping through the house as Chris shoots his gun out the slightly opened back door. This dude just isn't getting it! I just wonder if we'll have to have it trapped and transported somewhere else in order to have some peace at night for Prissy....... hum.....
