So it finally rained up in my corner of the state today....but.

[Tumbulu]

1. Two years ago this extra large coyote

moved onto my farm and killed 51 of my sheep and injured another 6, one who lost her entire side ( I could see her heart beating behind her ribs no less!). This coyote encouraged so many changes. I rescued a Livestock Guardian Dog and got a second one after that. I learned how to keep a ewe alive and watched skin bearing the finest wool return. I bought a paintball rifle.... still have to learn how to use it. I learned so many things, and really not too many of them were pleasant.

I grew from thinking of wildlife as benevelant messengers to super clever survivors who can be terrifying.

Good luck, I am so glad your kitty is fine!
