Surprise Company!!

We call him Bandit.

AJ and Me love wildlife. We buy loaves of bread just to feed the birds, bags of seed, and suet squares. Corn is purchased for the squirrels and I hammer bags of pecans to feed anything that will eat nuts in the icy weather and when the ground is frozen. We pop batches of pop corn for the hundreds of Grackles that find their way to our back yard in the winter. So you can see we love and welcome the Company we get in the back yard. But for some reason we have been over run with homeless stray cats. They really do not hurt anything, but it is just very sad to see them out in all kinds of weather and of course having more unwanted babies. AJ has a Live Trap, so we decide to catch a cat and take it to the No Kill Pound and hopefully finding it a home. Well the next morning we awake to a Raccoon! He was beautiful! Alot of our wooded areas have been cleared out for New Homes and this is driving the Wildlife into the city. So very sad. We called Animal Controll and Mr. Raccoon was taken to a wooded area outside of town. He is now safer and happier.
Please don't forget to feed the Birds this winter and they need water also!
