The squirrels here have a taste for baked good now. They hang out at the donut store. Much like the coyotes hang out in K-Town. The racoons are all over cat food now. Nobody wanted the banana I left out in the backyard.

when i lived in the Santa Cruz mountains there were indigenous mountain lions which ate the coyotes and the cats. there was a story in the local paper about a woman who came home from work, let her mini-poodle out in the yard, whence a lion came out of the trees, snatched up poor little Fluffy, and was gone in an instant. two of our three cats were indoor kitties, and we kept the third one indoors after dark.
you couldn't leave any kind of critter food outside. if the trash pandas didn't get it--and there was a plethora of them; i once opened the back door to discover about nine of them grouped around the back porch--the skunks would. i kind of miss living that close to the wildlife...there were also deer, hummingbirds, wild turkeys, and even salmon in the creek one year. and redwood trees everywhere...second growth cos the area was logged over in the late 1800s/early 1900s, but still very cool.

The coyotes in my area ate my friend's cat Lazarus I think. I haven't found her yet, but she's a fat ass and would not miss food time. Shes too skittish to hang out with strangers, so that's my guess.
I had What Hits on cassette in middle school, and it meant so much to me then that to this day I am deeply hurt every time I hear one of their newer songs and am reminded of what they became.
