1. I would advise against doing that.

They're wild animals and they carry rabies. It might work out in this case, but I wouldn't take a chance like that.

4. Oh, okay. That's a special case.

Not many people would know all that she would know about raising a wild animal as a pet.

3. Evil people that sprayed him being offset by good folks.

5. Sick of people who are afraid of every small wild critter!!!

We have raccoons on our deck almost every night. They're a slight nuance ONLY b/c they eat my squirrels' treats. They're not to be feared.

But then there's a neighbor, a hunter who gets pleasure from killing, who killed "my" friendly little gray momma fox. One night she brought her 3 kits to see me!!



These critters are the size of a house kitty but with longer legs & a bushy tail. Despite myths, they're seldom found to be rabid but are just more friendly than some realize.

One visited us just last night.

6. Good for this wonderful, compassionate lady!

Sending my atheist blessings her way.
