For the longest time after we moved Dave was certain he kept seeing a skunk near our house and whenever he went to investigate Ruby would race around on the trail of something. After many evenings of peering out the window to see a shadow slink by we were able to determine it was actually a cat. Whew - no close skunks! There are a lot of feral cats in the area but we've of course adopted this one as 'ours'; I'm pretty scared that Dave will be adopting every cat that comes this direction!
I thought we should name it Pepe Le Pew but Dave's suggestion of Shadow seems to have won. I braved the cold yesterday to create a cozy spot for Shadow in one of the cabins because of the frigid night we were expecting. She is a sweet kitty and must have been a pet at some point because she is quiet friendly. I guess we'll see this spring if we are treated to kittens, something I would secretly love!
