I love my cats!!馃

A gopher was eating my carrots. He had hidden his hole extremely well, and was taking care not to eat anything covering his hole or path, in an attempt to avoid detection by the cats.
I cleared the vegetation a little, called one of the cats over to get a smell, and the next morning the gopher was no more...馃樇馃樈馃樇馃樈馃樇

@Miram Sorry, but that's life when you have feral kitties and live next to an open field. Besides, it's better than setting traps or using chemicals.

@JimminyChristmas couldn't you take it somewhere else?

@Miram You mean not post about it?

@JimminyChristmas No, it is your profile.

I meant catch it and release it in the wild.

@Miram Release a gopher? No. You ever tried to pick up a gopher?馃槅
Gophers are scary mean!!馃槻

@JimminyChristmas It is best not to pick up wild animals even if you could. Buy a live trap.

I read somewhere that some gopher species in the US are endangered animals and it can be even illegal to kill them.

But I also read that capturing them alive and letting them go in someone else's property can be illegal as well

I think gophers are pretty cute and adorable 馃槥 RIP gopher.
