Charlie -- thanks for the grape advice. I've been having pretty good luck with jelly beans left over from Easter and those orange crackers in peanut butter in between. I caught a third one Wednesday night but they just keep on a-comin'. My grandson says they're like mosquitoes, just can't get all of them, so I might as well quit trying. He's got a point. Now I'm thankful that mosquitoes aren't the size of raccoons!

The thought of poisoning is lurking in the recesses of my mind. I hate to see it there, but each invasion brings it a little closer to the surface.

In the meantime, the cat may be adjusting to the new cat door on the deck that takes a leap to reach. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
