It’s all fun and games unless you have to catch a chipmunk in the morning and then you have to catch another at bedtime. That makes two in one day.

Need to borrow some traps? We trap them from under our front stoop and then release them in the woods.

I say traps plural, but I’m not sure of we have 1 or 2.
I think the only way I’d permanently get rid of them is to stop feeding the birds in my yard

How exactly are they getting in?
Four years ago I build an outdoor cage for them that sits on top of a basement window well. The chipmunks (because they’re morons) get into the cage and then they’re fucked. Which means I’m fucked. https://tcrbang.com/a/the_cat_pen_almost_got_finished_in_a_weekend/

You should come visit, let Stella co-pilot.

I’ve had them. I laid a trail of sunflower seeds to the door. That got one out. The other stole the seeds and I found a pile of them behind boxes in the basement when we moved. Bought live traps. Didn’t work. Moral: don’t let the cats bring in their friends. As if.
Yep, I’m really close to closing the cat window for good.

I actually used the idea of pets bringing in chipmunks in a book, so there’s that.
That’s awesome! Which book?
She thinks it was “Rekindling Motives”. Jolie Gentil series.
A real cat named Daisy was the inspiration for this. Daisy brought the chipmonks in alive and played with ‘em until we got ‘em out or Daisy killed ‘em.

Have you tried a serious sit down with your cats explaining your expectations? They are not allowed throw parties with their friends without prior consent. Be firm. I know it’s hard…
