Maybe it will raise a family. I say shoot it, shoot it now. No, we get traps from the humane society and let them free in an attic across town, or out in the country which ever comes first.Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02300213601564273147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-5765523937176524942009-01-12T20:01:00.000-06:002009-01-12T20:01:00.000-06:00Ah! little creatures can be bothersome at times--p...Ah! little creatures can be bothersome at times--perhaps he will go away when the season changes?<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>Clayrn Darrow<BR/>M.IVAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-2691594368466668382009-01-12T19:07:00.000-06:002009-01-12T19:07:00.000-06:00i posted my interview answers this evening. thanks...i posted my interview answers this evening. thanks for giving me such fun questions. it really was fun, a bit introspective and in one case challenging!! thanks again!julie kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009127575536333064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-57392888759888937942009-01-12T16:08:00.000-06:002009-01-12T16:08:00.000-06:00If you don't own your home surely the landlord wou...If you don't own your home surely the landlord would get rid of the varmint for you.

Pesky thangs. <BR/>Being a Southern girl and an avid hunter I was gonna say "Shoot it! Shoot it NOW!" [lol] But you know, I've mellowed a lot of late (must be old age and/or senility) but after reading Starlene's response, I'm with her. It's a good answer with an admirable philosophy. Putting it in a nut shell :o) maybe it's best to just live and let live. Or call the humane removal people and let them deal with it. Depends on one's pocket book I guess. :o) ♥ ∞Sparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-33956477323493636402009-01-12T09:07:00.000-06:002009-01-12T09:07:00.000-06:00I will take a chance and risk being the local craz...I will take a chance and risk being the local crazy girl in the blog neighborhood.<BR/><BR/>To Native Americans, animals symbolized wisdom. Ergo, if one is visited by an animal or has an intereaction with one, the universe may be bringing "medicine", or needed wisdom, to be incorporated into certain aspects of one's life. The squirrel's wisdom can be seen in his everyday actions...preparing, storing, playing, chattering and maybe in your case trusting (as in trusting your home as a safe place...might be a stretch, I don't know). Just another weird way of looking at an already weird situation. <BR/><BR/>I had a squirrel family in my attic once. They were very determined to stay. They're such funny little creatures. : )Laura Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407229726272149440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560071949400915555.post-9164772445200653482009-01-12T06:46:00.000-06:002009-01-12T06:46:00.000-06:00This wouldn't be a good time to tell you about the...This wouldn't be a good time to tell you about the <A HREF="http://thesmittenimage.blogspot.com/2008/03/things-that-go-bump-in-night.html" REL="nofollow">litter of raccoons</A> that were born in my attic last April, eh?<BR/><BR/>The thing is that if you trap and remove <I>her</I> you might be leaving possible babies behind. She'll move hell and high water to get back to them. If you can afford it, find a humane wildlife removal company - one who will be sure to remove and relocate the potential wee ones so that Mom can be reunited with them. They'll also disinfect the area, and seal all entry points (for additional costs, but then their animal-proofing is guaranteed).Hilaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12787493532006658679noreply@blogger.com
