One day it's the windmill garden
The next it's right outside our back door!
Over the past couple of weeks, she has been spotted prowling the farm a little too regularly with a rather predatory gleam in her eye. This Happy Goat-Herder is getting concerned. As is Mama Peacock and her babies!
But what to do? As a rule, I am not a mean-spirited, gun-toting farm-girl. Well, ok, but it was a really BIG snake. This Foxy lady has a family to raise, and kids will make you do all kinds of crazy things. Like throw caution to the wind and rub shoulders with the enemy...
She just doesn't know how crafty this enemy is! I remembered that the Boyd Big Cat Sanctuary is just down the road. I called them up for some suggestions. They are a non-profit animal sanctuary for lions, tigers and bears (oh my). Unfortunately they don't take in fox. No exceptions. Not even for this adorable little family...
But the receptionist told me they have a wonderful natural repellant that works great for pesky wildlife.
I immediately drove over and got a pail...
of Tiger Poop!
Big Cat Scat. The best Organic Repellant that nature has to offer. Did not know this was a marketable item.
Well, then, it seems my life has just been reduced to spreading tiger poop around the farm...in 100 degree plus weather...
Does it get much better?!
Amazingly, it appears to be working!
At least on Casey the barn cat. The smell of tiger poop definitely does not appeal! Praying that little Miss Fox thinks we've hired Tony the Tiger to patrol our borders!
Hope your day is filled abundant with friendly visitors and no crap!
Always, Jane
