Rex the cat is nine or so years old and was born with one of his rear legs shorter than the other. He's a good boy and usually leaves the foxes alone, but sometimes enjoys chasing them just for the fun of it. The foxes always run away.
This raccoon was severely injured four to six months ago perhaps by a dog or another raccoon. My cameras saw it in the neighborhood early one morning moving around fine and a few hours later leaving the area unable to use its front right foot at all. This morning the raccoon cleared out the dry cat food dish and slurped some liquid cat food before leaving.
Creatures do their best to survive and adapt . . . just like Rex the cat who was under the table. Rex was born around nine years ago with one of his rear legs shorter than the other. One of Rex's hobbies is chasing foxes out of the yard, but he won't mess with raccoons.
Lubbock Police Department normally gives you 4 MPH over the speed limit on Loop 289 or the access roads, but start going just a little bit faster and you may get lit up. Vehicle that got stopped had slowly been extending distance over my vehicle going 49 MPH.
It's absolutely amazing how often foxes, opossums, skunks, and sometimes raccoons visit the neighborhood. This is the second time my cameras have observed five foxes together. The last time that happened was on August 3, 2025.
There is a Lubbock Police Department officer around my area who likes to give tickets if both of your feet aren't on the sidewalk. The guy must have been off for the day. He needs to step up his game, go for a mass ticket event, and maybe get promoted to Parking Control. $147.00 per person tickets for being on the street add up fast. LOL
fudgemeister provided great commentary on this video. For those of you who wish to see a video of my favorite Lubbock Police Department officer ticketing a walker, do a reddit search for LPD Officer Tickets Walker -- August 22, 2024 .
One skunk comes from the front yard and the other from the alley. They meet up on the back porch. Listen closely to them near the end of the video.
The first driver makes a superb right turn and doesn't cause drivers behind to tap their brake pedal.
The second driver in the blue vehicle is a clueless moron who probably doesn't even have a driver license or vehicle insurance and is a cause of rear-end collisions.
The third driver in the pickup doing a double lane change is seen daily all over Lubbock. It's a young male pickup driver specialty. LOL
Audio muted due to me swearing two out of three times.
Lubbock Police Department, in co-operation with Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, wish to inform the public that the 2026 Dove hunting season begins September 1, 2026 and not a day earlier. Both organizations thank-you for your attention to this matter.
First driver in car just can't get the vehicle up to at least 60 MPH at the top of the ramp onto Loop 289. Work your way into the traffic flow or get your butt off the Loop and stay on the access road! Or better yet, turn in your driver license and call it a day.
Oh, and what would we do without the pickup truck drivers that continually run over people, walkers, joggers, wheelchair users, dogs, and fire hydrants when they're not running into houses at 2:00 A.M. after bar closing time? I don't think half of the pickup truck drivers can even see over the steering wheel. They sure as hell don’t know what a side view mirror is for.
Sound muted due to me swearing in all three video segments.
You can set your clock by this one who is a regular stop sign runner. And the other drivers near the four-way stop signs at the intersection better stop for their own safety because guess who always has the right-of-way?
Quite the show, huh?
This clown just doesn't care what the law is in Texas in regards to lane-splitting or the speed limit. News channels thrive on motorcyclists due to how often they become the top-of-the-newscast roadkill story.
Loop 289 access roads often have space for drivers to move over to the far right side of the road when making a right turn. It's a great concept that quite a few dummy drivers fail to grasp. Drivers behind the moron switch to the left lane if possible or slow down to avoid running up the driver's tailpipe.

Visits from an opossum, a skunk, and two foxes this morning. Here is a video of the two foxes.
The access ramp on Loop 289 is to get your vehicle up to moving traffic speed (65 to 70 MPH). It isn't 44 MPH, dummy in the Kia with handicapped license plates. Everyone behind you had to hit their brakes while you diddled along at a snail's pace.

Won't show the video with their faces visible due to their age, but these two children were vaping while walking. The kid with the red shorts can blow a good cloud.
Per a Google Search on color combinations, some joker left out the color green to sneak this one by Lubbock Independent School District administration. Picture is from the message board in front of the main entrance at Mackenzie Middle School.
06-27-26 UPDATE: DifficultYam463 believes that a FEMALE was arrested for a stabbing. After listening to the audio too many times, I think the correct title for this topic should be "She stabbed me!" Thanks for your post, DifficultYam463.
If it isn't pit bulls, car burglars, or shots fired, then it's domestic disputes. Today's episode is a domestic at one of my favorite spots on my morning walks. At least three Lubbock Police Department vehicles, an ambulance, and a fire truck showed up with sirens blazing. Victim hauled off to a hospital. Looks like the stabber made a getaway in the vehicle that was parked on the street.
Lubbock Police Department wants to know what my cameras recorded on Mother's Day 2026.
Gray foxes are very common in the Texas city I reside. Cameras record them probably five days a week and often multiple times on those days. The cat/fox interactions are amazing. The cameras have never recorded a gray fox chasing a cat, but occasionally record a cat chasing a fox. Here is Rex, a wonderful cat who was born with one of his rear legs shorter than the other, chasing a fox in the alley. Both foxes eventually decide to go elsewhere.
