Add one mole, toss gently.

That's pretty good for indoor cats, Elic! Sounds like you have a lot of these critters around outside your house, too, for all those things to get inside where the cats can get them. We have too many around here but, since I'll be moving soon to my other house, I doubt I'll have such a big critter problem there. This house is in the mountains, with trees all around. The other house has very few trees on the 3 acres it sits on and I haven't seen one rodent when I was in that house, fixing it up. Gee, I hope Bean doesn't get bored! LOL

donno why she didn't shovel it up into a bag and put it out in the trash...

Let's hope it's just bones by now. Ewwwww!!!

We had a rabbit in our garden and our dog, Sable, totally ignored it. But she did want the squirrels to come play with her all the time :)

A goat???? Good grief! I take it she's a large dog? Man! What a huntress! I wish my cat (16 pounds) would catch this one little rabbit that hangs around here. So far, the rabbit just nibbles on the clover in the front of the house but one of these days I'm sure it will find my vegetable garden. I know we have skunks around here, too, but luckily I haven't seen any close by. If one did wander too close, I'm sure Bean would go after it and most likely get sprayed in the process. Skunks are pretty unforgiving. My dogs are only 5 and 7 pounds so they only go after things much smaller than they are. Oh, they bark at the big dogs like they're even bigger, and maybe they do think they're big dogs, but I haven't let them loose to see how they'd fare with bigger animals. I'd like to think they could do away with all the geese that hang around our lake, though. They are such pests!

Yeah, she's a large breed dog, but kind of on the smaller side. I'm guessing she's about 65 lbs at the moment. Her accomplice (my other dog, and the same breed) is probably closer to 120. He totally dwarfs her in comparison! LOL The goat's a mini goat, or something like that, so it's a little thing. Cute too! I saw a skunk right in the yard a few months ago, and during the daytime nonetheless. The darn thing freaked me out. I'm guessing it left and found a new home as I haven't seen it since. At least I'm hoping anyway. It's funny how the little dogs think they're bigger than they are. They actually scare me more than the bigger breeds! And don't even get me started with geese as those things can be mean! LOL

Hi Cats. I'm still going through my stuff and STILL waiting for Social Security to start giving me my benefits! It's been over 7 weeks now since they approved me and I haven't heard a single word! I will be contacting them soon if I don't hear from them. The approval letter said that, if I do not hear from them within 60 days that I am to contact them. Of course, I thought immediately that I would be calling them because that is the way this whole case has gone for me.... waiting, waiting and more waiting. Seven years to approve me and now seven weeks since the approval letter with no benefits. I can't do a thing until I start receiving my benefits. Things are calm on the home front, though. He knows something is up because I've been going through my things like a hurricane and have such a huge pile of stuff to get rid of. I've never done this on a scale this large before and it's scaring him. Too bad, huh? I'm being civil to him because I want him to sign the life insurance policy I take out on him once I start getting some money. It's going to be as large as possible because he won't live to be an old man. He's killing himself with his drinking and the way he eats. I figure it will be my compensation for putting up with him for so long. At least it will have a happy ending, huh? LOL

Hi dragon. No, I haven't moved yet. I still haven't heard anything about my disability benefits. I'll need them to survive until I can take HIM to court. For now, though, it's pretty quiet around here. He's not talking much to me because he's worried that I'm up to something. I am, of course, but I haven't told him. He doesn't want me to leave. That's too bad. He blew it. I'll be out of here just as soon as I can. In the meantime, while waiting for my benefits, I've been packing so I'll be ready when the benefits start. Now, about your dog... worms???? Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!! I think I could handle seeing my dogs or cat chewing on a mouse easier than a worm. I don't know why; the thought of it is just too gross. Ewwww!

Hi paula. I will probably just have to get used to these "gifts" my cat brings in. Living in the country, we have more than enough critters running around outside and a lot of them seem to love my vegetable garden. For that reason ONLY, I'll let my kitty come and go as he pleases. (He goes in and out the doggie door we installed for the dogs.) I'm sure we'd be inundated by rodents if it weren't for Bean. A long time ago, I had a cat become a family member exactly like your Rosie. She hung around outside and I fed her while trying to locate her owner or even anyone who might know who she belonged to. No one knew anything so, before long, she came inside and was perfectly (purrfectly?) content to stay. I didn't notice any legs or tails outside but she was a great mouser every Fall, when the weather got colder and the mice started coming in for warmth.

Hi thea. I haven't moved yet. I'm still waiting for my disability benefits to begin. Looks like I'm going to have to fight Social Security some more. It only took them seven years to approve me, now they're driving me nuts by taking their time in giving me the benefits they approved me for 5 1/2 weeks ago! At least things have calmed down here some. My husband came home and, somehow, got the mortgage bank to work with him. I know he gave them $8,500.00 and he said they're working out a new loan for us with a lower interest rate. Well, that's good, but it won't stop me from moving. I've had it with his irresponsible, and sometimes downright mean, behavior. I know I'll just have more of the same if I stayed with him so I am very determined to move. Right now, I'm packing so I'll be ready whenever Social Security decides to grace me with the benefits I earned over the years.
