These are pretty funny! SO, I'll relate the only skunk story I
have: A friend of mine in college had a descented skunk as a pet, she
lived in a rural area and as a hobby fed all the wild critters...birds,
squirrels etc... Her boyfriend, later to be husband, never had animals
growing up, but was very fond of all of Char's. Unfortunately he let
an indoor only cat of her's out of the house and while they eventually got
the cat back, he took a load of lectures on the importance of watching that
the animals didn't get out. Anyway, a few weeks after the cat
incident, he went over to Char's house and saw "Squiggy" the skunk wondering
around the side yard. Happily determined to throw her words back at
her, Kevin kept trying to pick up Squiggy hoping to ring the door bell with
the beloved escaped pet in his arms and to spout the same LONG lecture back
at her....after about three near misses, Char, who had heard his car pull up
and was wondering WHY he hadn't come in yet went to the door and opened
it...the REAL Squiggy in her arms....Kevin saw her out of the corner of his
eye, just as he made a semi successful lunge at the skunk he THOUGHT was
Squiggy....and got sprayed full on! THAT'S where I learned about using
Tomato Juice to cut the stink ...(which by the way Kevin and Char received
40 cans of for their wedding shower!) Julie Johnson

Kerry, I live in a small city but the country is not at all far away
and when I was getting on the highway one early spring morning, I thought
I saw a dog standing on the side of the road. He loped off and as I
got closer I could see it was not a dog, but a coyote (literally less than
a mile from my house).
I always have a leash in the car and was preparing to pull
over! I sent my husband an email later in the day relating the
incident and his response, was, "well, have you found him a home or do we
get to name him?"!! If I had skunks snoozing on the couch I don't
even know if he'd notice!!

That's pretty funny. Mind you, I don't think anyone's significant
other on this list could be blamed for wondering when the day is going
to come that they arrive home to find a coupla skunks cosying
up by the hearth or stretched out on the sofa. Hey, they're all
God's creatures, right! :>)
Gee, Cherie, I have no suggestions on that. My husband once
called me on his cell phone from the driveway of our house to '"come and
get YOUR skunks off the porch" so he could get in the house! He
didn't want to risk getting sprayed and they were dining on the food I
keep out there for whoever needs to eat; maybe a cell phone for
doggie?? It's always something, isn't it????
Good luck!
