Two nights ago, I had a minor altercation with this:
I had trapped the creature and her babies against the fence, before crazy lady stopped me with the stupid "leave it" and "come" commands. Damn training. Crazy lady may have halted the madness before any bodily fluids were exchanged, but I still developed a taste for their sweet nectar. Unfortunately, today, in the wee morning hours, the Demon Spawn climbed onto the roof with her family and stuck her face and paws against the window. She stared directly at me and hissed. I do not cower from a challenge-- especially from prey at 2 AM-- and I decided to kill the Demon Spawn. An overloaded bookshelf, stereo speakers, computer wires, and a silly window on the second floor was not going to stop me. I am powerful.
Needless to say, it was a long night. I wanted out-- the Demon Spawn and her devil babies wanted in-- and crazy lady wanted sleep. In between the "leave it" and "go to bed" commands (which actually worked, until the hissing against the window started, again), crazy lady kept mumbling, "un-frackin-believable" and "did you have to torture that mamma coon, last night?" So what if the creature is looking for revenge? A good fight? I know I am an awesome huntress, and the midnight hour is the best time to prowl for my goodies. Demon Spawn beware...
I am not a weakling, like this poor excuse for a canine:
