Found and Home safe!

T is at the side door and said quietly...Mom Alex is at the side door on the deck. I said OK. I will go out the front door and go around and I will try to get him...as I did he Bolted down the back again! I was like UgH! I told T a plan I had...I told her to stay inside and let me try to do try something different...so here I am alone in the dark with my pinky size flash light sitting in the pool stairs sitting as still as could be ( hard when you have Adult ADD LOL)as I sat still I could hear crinkling in the woods behind the pool.... Ekkk. I thought to myself ahhh finally he is coming up to the deck for the tuna...I kept hearing it....and no Alex so I moved to the side of the garage and sat against the garage door and I heard it again....so as I am hearing the crinkling in the woods to my left I catch a movement to my right to my surprise it was ALEX! I tried to sit as still as I could be as I watched Alex walk the perimeter of the house following the sent of Tuna as he got to the deck with tuna I left the door open hoping he would go in...he sat and ate the tuna..I snuck up on him and grabbed him and brought him in to T... then I was overpowered with a funky smell..........He got SPRAYED BY A SKUNK! can you believe it? so we check him over he is loaded with Burdocks and is so dirty. and had pine pitch all over his fur...So I guess he is off to the Groomers again for another funny haircut! I took a picture of him with T but My battery died so I can't post it.so now T is so Happy...so happy she woke up W to share the news..so here it is midnight and both my daughters are up having a grand ol time in the basement with Alex....they keep coming up for fresh air. I told T that he needs to stay in the basement area until he gets a bath. so they are downstairs making a kitty condo for him with a bed, food, water and litter box. Pew Eeee he is smelly! I hope Bailey's kitty returns home soon. Their Kitty snuck away too.....
