5 Monkeys and a Skunk

You have got to be kidding me!!!!


via


Well, it finally happened. One skunk, 5 monkeys. Can you guess who won?

Of course, it happened at the most convenient time. Say, 8:40 pm, Friday exactly. And I know this why?
Because, my dear friends, that's when I received a text saying that company was on the way.

CRAPFEST!!!!

The short version of the story goes like this.....

Monkeys raising a ruckus in their fenced area.

Lily comes in, jumps on my bed, stinking to high heaven and rolling around in the sheets.

I jump up, get her out of the room, grab the sheets and throw them in the family room.

Crapfest!!! I don't hear any of the monkeys.

Monkeys have broken out of the fence.

I close the pet door so Lily can't get back out.

I grab a flashlight and start calling monkeys.

Baby Z was caught first.

Snoopy came close then ran off with Samson.

I grabbed Puggies. Got him in the house.

Three down two to go.

Chased Snoopy all over hell and creation, finally got him in the house.

Where the hell is Samson???

I see his eyes reflecting in the light of the flashlight. Well, I hoped it was Samson, as he would not come when called.

I wade, just under a quarter of a mile, through thigh high vegetation to find

Samson sitting next to the skunk.

Skunk is dead.

Headlights now coming up the driveway. Guests have arrived.

Get Samson in the house.

I stink, the monkeys stink and the house stinks.

Oh, I almost forgot. The vomit, monkey vomit on the floors.

I can't put the monkeys outside, as now they know they can break through the fence.

Oh, and I have to work a full day Saturday.

When I come home there will be multiple baths for all the monkeys.

No winners here.

And I am the BIGGEST LOSER of them all.

Truly a memorable Memorial weekend!!!

  1. Oh, I feel for ya.
    A couple of years ago, our house took a direct hit from a skunk. OMG...you couldn't breathe.
    Don't waste your time OR money on home remedies, etc. Go to the vets pr groomers and get some "Skunk-Off". Not wanting to sound like a commercial, but it did really work.
    Good luck!
