Default Skunk driving me NUTS!!

Mr Snuggles is under the sofa making himself a nest, it sounds like he's shredding a magazine - probably one of mine that I've not read yet too.

He's right under my seat shredding away and I daren't recline it to drag him out in case I catch him in the mechanism!

The noise is driving me mad!

I love watching them 'appropriate' things for their beds and I am often amazed at how industrious they can be.
We're seeing less of ours now winters drawing in, even though they all live indoors.

He's made a lovely nest in his sleeping box with newspaper, carrier bags and some old wall paper the neighbour's kids drew pictures on for me. Oops.

He's snuggled up next to me on the sofa now, it's much quieter!

Life is boring without a black and white whirlwind.
