I never knew there was some sort of concauction you could make to get rid of skunk spray. I'll keep that in mind.
This reminds me of a book I had growing up called Skunk And Possom. In the first story, Skunk makes perfume and her friend, Possom, doesn't know what to do with it. Skunk tells her she'll treasure it forever, won't she? That gives her an idea. She burries it in the yard and puts a sign tht says: "Burried reassure: Dig at your own risk!"

Almost! Subject: Re: Skunk Spray Tomato juice works somewhat but, as you said, time takes care of it after awhile. We had a golden retriever back in the eighties who tangled with a skunk. We weren't at home when it happened but our house smelled so bad when we got back that we didn't realize that much of that smell was the dog. Beverly bought a large can of the cheapest tomato juice you could get and bathed the dog in that and it did a lot of good but it didn't get rid of all of it. There is actually a science-based concoction you can mix together that breaks down the active chemical in skunk spray and neutralizes it. The recipe is on the internet and it doesn't require anything exotic but it was the result of some research actually done in to the chemistry of skunk musk. There are some old classic cartoons featuring a French skunk who is always falling in love with cats who look like skunks and, of course, it never works out for him. I think his name is Pepi La Pu. For those not from North America, when you read books or hear references to pole cats, it is possible that someone is referring to skunks. ======================================== The Just-chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/just-chat> You can find an archive of all messages posted to the just-chat group at either of the following: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/just-chat/index.html> or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> You may subscribe with your RSS reader at the following URL: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.xml> ---------------------------------------
