The DAMN BEAR came back last night! Grrrrrr!!! [View all]

It's fuckin WAR now!

He actuslly got in the living room window, broke my bookshelf with his fat ass. Had a little party in the kitchen. Got the frozen cherries out of the freezer, AND half a watermelon in the fridge, spilled oatmilk everywhere, peanuts for the birds all over the floor like a cowbay bar, AND managed to take the cat kibble bucket with him outside - left it on the lawn!

I heard a kerfuffle in the living room, but assumed it was the cat chasing something (chipmunks and mice can get in some hole in the bathroom - can't find it. we're in the forest for crissakes) - So I yeled at the "cat" to go ahead and eat it and don't break anything!
I guess that scared him off - thank goodness, cuz it could have been WAY worse!

Woke up to the cat crying at the back door (she'd obviously gone out the open window up front) and the window open and my kitchen trashed... Fucker.
In my defense, I was struggling to sleep so I took a benadryl about 1am, so I guess that's why I didn't really wake up or investigate last night.

FUUUUCK! Bullet dodged. But now he knows I am a good target. I got a call in to the electric bear mat guy in town. And I have GOT to get new windows. Even if it's just the front ones for now... Maybe the county has a low income program...
