A skunk has figured out how to get through the doggy door my cats use.
Yesterday, I heard extremely loud chomping on the cat food. I just thought it was the newest cat, because she’s still somewhat a kitten and is extremely loud and crazy. The fucking fear I felt when I walked in there and this was what I saw was insane. I knocked on the door trying my best not to frighten it too much and have it spray me.
My boyfriend bought some skunk repellant, hasn’t worked so far. He’s been hunting for its den trying to close it off. He said you can’t kill it because if it dies, it will release ALL of its stank glands.
This is a problem I never expected to ever have in my entire life, lol. Soooo, on the off chance anyone else has had an issue like this, how did you resolve it?
He’s so freaking cute with his magnificent tail, but he can’t stay here with his stank gland being a constant fear since we found out. Like, I’m legit terrified. We thought the skunk repellant was working, then when I was laying down for sleep last night, I heard that loud chomping again. Boyfriend came in and shooed him away and put the cover on the doggy door, but our two cats use the restroom out there. We don’t have a litter box (I despise them, the little stinky rocks get strewn throughout the house from their paws).
I’m at a loss here, and I don’t know where else to post this, because Redditors on other subs will freak out because I let my cats outside.
