I said live trap, but Ted heard tennis racket and shovel. Hmmm.... and I am a former zoo employee!?!? I "distracted" the kids in Will's room while Ted waited on guard outside. The chipmunk was out of his hole and ran from one side of the house to the other. Mind you, he went around the front side of the house to get to the other side. He's a smart lil rodent and was VERY bothered that Ted was standing at his "front" door. Needless to say, no blood was shed. The chipmunk, surprisingly HA!, didn't get close enough for a whack. Maybe we'll try live traps tomorrow??
Natalie said, "Dad we can't hurt him. He lives in the wild and this is his home."
Will said, "Dad, how are we going to kill that chipmunk." To which Ted responded, "Don't worry bud we're going to get him." Somehow, I see a pellet gun in our future.
