Update on the Chipmunk in My House

Last night I discovered the chipmunk is still in my house and apparently live and well, if not frightened! He/she is/was in my pantry. My cat, Mrs. Whiggins, was in there nosing around and I heard the familiar chirp, though I did not see it. At least Mrs. Whiggins did not have it in her mouth! I baited my small Hav-A-Heart(R) trap with cheese crackers and left it at the open doorway of the pantry. The chipmunk is still loose somewhere, but hope to come home in a couple of days and find it alive inside the trap. I am assuming it would want to be outside free, though it is sure to be behind in nut-gathering for the winter. I'm off to Auburn in a few minutes for the weekend. John is playing again with the Sons of the Bunkhouse band at the Red Rooster Pub in Skaneateles Falls, NY, at 4:00, so I'd better scoot to the shower so I will be ready to travel.
