My friend has a crazy lady next door who puts out all sorts of food for
animals. Not just suet and bird seed. She puts out scraps of meet,
leftovers and cat food. She thinks she is terrific because she is kind
to animals. My friend has three Setters who go nuts at the parade of
squirrels and chipmunks going by to her house. He is also concerned
about foxes, raccoons, opossums and coyotes. He asked asked her to stop
but she continues. Last year he started live trapping them and
relocating them, which is quite legal if you don't take them more than a
mile or so. She phoned the town to complain about him doing that.
