A wise decision!

I don’t know why I didn’t think of it before

I wouldn’t have thought of a live trap being set inside a house

Haha! Me either 😄

sadly, our chipmunks are not delivered alive…

So your kitties are outside/inside kitties?

Please release them gently ❤️

Lovely 😍💋 💝💖❤️

🤔

Look at that sweet lil’ face! This is the problem, T. He thinks he’s a pesky lil’ rascal.

He was a pesky rascal. Had about as much fear as a Terminator.

I want chipmunks in my yard! 😫

no you don’t 😅

But they’re soooooo cute!!!! 🐿🐿🐿

Have you found where they’re getting in yet? I hope they aren’t having babies in your walls!

W00t, freedom! Sweet sweet freedom.

A chipmunk has black stripes and a thin tail that points upward - I just googled it

What a good idea!

Bye bye l’il chipmunk! Well done!

Thank you!

This looks like a squirrel?😳👀

It’s the rare tiger mouse

Stella does the cat thing with ‘em.

I think you need to have a talk with your cats.

I think you’re right!

Omg…where are they coming from???

I would try to locate the hole that they are getting in your basement

Your house needs a critter exorcism

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/

Are they in your house?

Yep, the cats bring them in through the basement window

I want one!!!!

You can have all of my chipmunks you want :)

You need to put out a sign on your lawn…all of Gods critters not welcome inside

They look much cuter running around your yard.

A few more and you can start a band

They like you!!

Stella has kind of mercenary attitude about it but she’ll be happy to help out. Guaranteed results.

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…

I think they are adorable! How are they getting in?

Did the Chipmunk survive?

Yep, not even any visible damage to the critter

😉👍

Phoebe killed a chipmonk right in front of me on the front porch in Muncie. Stella has killed so many chipmonks, bunnies, birds, on alligator and wolverine. She’s a menace II society.

My cats also like to kill worms. They never eat them, just kill them and leave their shriveled bodies on the basement carpet.
