Comment by DKeys on July 6, 2012 at 4:34pm: yes, I think they're offended by my insensitive filming of one of their dead compadres=brochachos. I will find a way to set him free. We are going to leave the window open and hope the poor thing has the sense to go out. I still can't believe how useless my cats have been. They act like nothing is happening and continue to lay around. I think we need a dog:)

Comment by DKeys on July 6, 2012 at 2:53pm: We have a squirrel in our house at the moment that we can't catch. I am concerned now that the RoadKill is coming to me
