Animal in the Attic

 3 nights ago, Kevin woke me up at 1:30 a.m. because he was hearing strange sounds.

 Kevin got out a flashlight and looked on the roof of our porch.  Nothing was there.  While he was downstairs, I heard a thumping noise and told him about it.  We eventually realized it was in the wall of our bedroom!  Ugh!  Animal in the wall, animal in the wall!

We pounded on the wall and it scurried upwards, so we think it is in the attic somewhere. Sigh.  Kevin put a trap in the attic and a trap outside on the front porch, but so far we've not caught anything.  I did hear it 2 nights ago as well, and Isaac heard it in his bedroom last night.

This is the trap on the front porch.  We put a food bowl in it at night, hoping that the attic animal CAN get out and will go to its normal food source. Not surprisingly, we just keep catching...cats.  I think every single one of our 6 cats has gotten trapped at least once, and Moonbeam (our fattest and most foolish) has been caught 2ce.

Ah well.

Stay tuned for the latest developments.
