I write less on www.ericrush.com than I did here, so I'll start paying attention to this again. Working on a new book: It's Too Bad I'll Never Build Another House Because Next Time I'd Know What I Was Doing

Achoo, Part Two

The wildlife agent sounded skeptical when I asked if I could legally trap or kill the fisher that probably killed Achoo the kitten. A fisher? I told him I'd take pictures to show him if I catch it.

Because it's a fur-bearing game animal, it can only be trapped in season and with a license. But I could live-trap it on my property and release it elsewhere with permission of the property owner.

Tractor Supply was having a closeout on live traps, a two-for-one deal. So far, I've caught four raccoons, a beagle, and the neighbor's cat. No sign of the fisher, or whatever it is. I don't know whether they're territorial or nomadic; maybe it's run out of cats it can catch in the neighborhood and moved on.
