Local cat rescue picked up 9 feral cats over the last week. The TNR ones released in my neighborhood might be still think under drugs.
Picking a fight with a skunk is a bad bad idea

Calling Columbus Fire to pick me up in my yard at 2:30 am would draw a lot of bad neighbor juju. They would come with sirens & lights.
Also be discussed at the firehouse( my nephew is a firefighter) is not something I can consider.
