Hi all, i would like to get your views about some things.
We seem to have become the scape goat for wildlife in our neighborhood, mainly skunks.
We feed the birds and squirrels during the day and maybe sometimes there is a very little bit of bread left over come night time.
We have dogs in houses on each side of us.
Previously, one neighbors dog was sprayed, now the other neighbor, one of her dogs was sprayed months later, in their own yards.
What i find strange about all this is, these people are willing to blame us, which is a form of attack, for something we are not responsible for.
How can we be ultimately responsible for our wild animal friends in nature, we don't own them, nor are they are pets.
It is my opinion, these people are being very self centered, they don't give a hoot about our animal friends, then when they get sprayed, they care, but in a negative way and to make things worse, they are looking to blame whoever they can in the neighborhood, as if we are responsible for all these animals running around, i thought god was responsible for that, go figure.
Also, it's almost as if they are pissed off at the creator of nature, which includes skunks and don't know how to deal with what in their minds, must seem like an attack of the smelly kind.
Bear in mind, these skunks could not possibly live off what occasional scraps are left in the yard, so they are getting the rest from nature directly and other peoples gardens.
Should we ban people from growing their own food, because some people have some kind of grudge against other life forms running wild around them and are we going to blame all these garden growers for aiding and abetting our animal friends, lol.
I'm sure we have many opinions on this here, lets here your choice and opinion and by chioce i mean, will you accept other life around you and respect it also, or will you only respect dogs and cats, lol.
peace love light

We have a family of feral cats we feed. One day a neighbor came over complaining about the fleas. Well, excuse me. Fleas like mammals. Us included. Go figure.
You won't win a Civil Suit with that argument, though. ;)
There's a number of different parahraphs in civil law that could eff you here, if your neighbor would be smart enough to find'em. Somehow, I suspect that he is not. And I sure as hell ain't gonna tell him/her/it either. :D
