I stopped at home during work tonight and as I got out of my squad John turned on the outside lights and there standing before me was a baby woodchuck. It looks like a RAT! It was scratching at the front door and John thought it was me. Good thing he didn't open the door! I called our Animal Control Officer and she came over and caught it using a net and a pet taxi! It was gross! I had to snap some pictures! To those of you who love animals you will be glad to know that she released it by the river. That was not what I had in mind for taking care of it, but that's why I let her take care of it!
He just sat there by the door! John thought he was going to die there!
All of those scratches were not there before. They must be from the woodchuck. It had really long claws! Rex would have had a hay day if we would have let him out!
Here it is in the cage! Those are my boots! HAHA!

I'm glad I wasn't there to see it...I would have freaked! Yes, it does look like a rat. Look at the tail! Ick!
I imagine Noah would have loved it for a pet, though, and Rex too!
I think Rex would have liked him for lunch. You would not believe how long the claws were on that thing! I think it would have scratched Noah to pieces!
