Muskrat love...

Muskrat love...  Well, not so much.  Debbie went downstairs to visit with our cats yesterday morning, and shortly thereafter hollered up at me to come down and “see something”.  When I walked into the cattery, she and the cats were all looking out one of the room's windows.  It opened into a casement, and in the bottom was a small (and quite unhappy!) muskrat, very much like the photo at right (which I did not take).

The cats were all “Get that annoying thing out of here!”  Debbie was pretty much the same.  All of them looked at me :)  We got a plastic bucket that had a snap lid, and managed to herd the thing into it.  I took it out into our field and let it go – where, most likely, it made a good meal for a hawk or a dog...
