Two nights ago, roughly 3AM and I hear the unmistakable sound of ‘the scratch’. As it is 3AM and I was sleeping I am certain it was not the first scratch. My old pooch doesn’t have accidents but shes older and I wonder if she eaten something unusual? Did I short change her on the evening walk? As this is very unusual and I am a big softie. I wake the wife and we take her out. Actually I do the walking while the Mrs hangs by the front door. As there have been numerous car break ins I am no longer cavalier about going outside in the middle of the night. There are no street lights here so it is quite dark out. She quickly does her business following the path around the front of the house. That’s when we heard the scream. It was close by, loud and creepy and I’m sure it was a fox. Of course my old gal goes nuts barking and carrying on. We went in, turned the alarm on, lights off and went back to bed.
Last night around 10PM I am watching TV and DD comes down and has a car alarm is going off. I say who’s and she says one of ours. I turn the 2, 100 watt carriage lights by the garage and we go out to find nothing. Cars all locked and everything seems fine.
The Mrs quickly goes to the video tape. We see a grey fox by the pool and it is heading to the end of the driveway where the cars are parked. A few seconds later we see the flashing lights of the car alarm. I didn’t know a fox was capable to set off a car alarm?
I woke at 5AM this morning and got up because knew I’d never fall back asleep. The pooch came down a few minutes after me and is no doubt sleeping by the front door. It is 5:50AM, I am almost finished with my first cup of coffee and the she hasn’t scratched yet. Around 6AM the neighborhood comes alive. People start to go to work like DD who is out of the house by 6:40, the joggers do their thing and the summer sun will be up.
You know I used to really enjoy foxes.
