      Yeah, if only god would bless them. Instead no, they have to rely on coming up with the funds and likely donations.
      What makes you think “god” would help them? Have you seen the world or do people just say this as a way to make themselves feel good?
      I really don’t understand. If your religion is real, then that means your god created a world where many of the creature have to survive by killing and eating other, often the most harmless and cute creatures while they are still alive.
      What when watching a nature channel makes you think god cares enough to help anything? Do you feel gods love and caring when you see a lion slaughter Cubs or a mother polar bear frantically trying to fend off a starving male that simply throws her to the side and kills her cub right in front of her? None of this would be necessary, if it’s designed, then that means your god chose for it to be like that, and I can’t imagine that god being anything but a psychopath, and that’s before I get anywhere near the Bible.

    We had a young black and white cat, that played with a skunk that looked to be the same age. Was so funny, one afternoon I looked out the back door, there they both sat as pretty as could be wanting in. 🤣 I so wanted to feed the little thing, but knew better because it's mother was near by.

    I have 2 adult skunks living under my deck who moved in as juveniles. Last year they raised a litter of babies, and they are so charming to watch - from a distance. I live in a rural area, so there's lots of wild critters than come by, and some set up permanent residence when there's shelter and food available. I like having the skunks - they keep the raccoons away from my yard.

      They love raspberries. We had a family last Summer. I always took my mom's garden fruits from next door and fed them to the skunks. The ones that were not in good shape for us to eat. Raspberries were their favorite. I'd always leave plate fulls of fruit for them at night. And they would dig the cutest holes in the yard all over the place.

I stood braced for battle but had no weapons. The sound got closer and louder and my heart raced. Then a skunk walked out of the brush and we scared each other half to death. We both ran away.

      Hi. Since you brought it up with some emotion, may I ask you something? Of course I may, I'm free to . . . Isn't helping humans more important? Don't get me wrong, I'm all for helping animals. But human life suffers in this world without help. People, children particular, can't simply pick themselves up by their bootstraps and do better for themselves. Dirt floors, rodent infestation, having to walk miles just to get clean water . . . and then walk miles back carrying that water, seeking a next meal in a literal garbage dump . . . that's life for some people. Many are passionate about helping animals but what about humans? This should weigh heavily on all people who want to help in one way or another.

      Pet skunk breeders are required to have their scent glands removed before they leave the litter. My buddy's breeder even had him neutered.
      Yes. They are stinky still because like ferrets they have a "musk" smell. I used dog cologne on him once a week. Spray it on rub it in. Once a month he got a shower in blue dawn dish liquid.
      Also. They are hypoallergenic so if you are allergic to animals you will not be allergic to them. I miss my baby boy.

      Once, my outside dogs saw one, and didn't speak skunk. I heard a horrified howl, and then all three started barking and howling (mama was half Beagle, half Jack Russell, her boys were half her, plus a quarter each German Sheppard and Chow). Before I could even get up out of bed, I started smelling it _through_ the closed bedroom windows. When I went out to check, the stink was so strong, I couldn't go into the back yard. I had an asthma attack, and threw up. My poor babies! By the morning, most of the smell had gone away, but they were miserable, and I smelt it all night in the house, throughout. There was no escape. Meanwhile, sometimes, driving at night on country roads, I'll smell just a faint hint of one, and it reminds me of some good "herb." Lol!

    We rescued two tiny quail last year. So tiny and yet so bold. They were cold & hungry. I scooped them up into a shoebox and placed in bathroom under my heat lamp. Made some sugar water for them. Called, a sanctuary and turned them over. Okay checked on them. They survived and were released back into wild. The little girl was so bold coming up to us. She came right up to us on the porch. Brother following her. We never did find momma. I live in PNW and every year we have young hawks, we mentor. They have a nest in huge tree in my backyard. They always drop to ground a few days before they can fly. So we hid them in our orchard and keep an eye on them. After, I check them over and determine they aren’t hurt. Usually, within two days they are flying. I am part Indigenous and we believe…….animals are our teachers. The four legged, the winged ones, swimmers and crawlers. Please respect……… all life forms. I talk to the tree people too.

    I love animals and when we had skunks in our neighborhood I thought it was so cool. Unfortunately a tragedy occurred when the city broke the lid off our trash bin on collection day and while I was waiting for the city to take it away we had a deluge. I never thought to turn my bin upside down and now I’m kicking myself bc a skunk got in there and didn’t make it. Me and my kid felt terrible and it made us think about what hazards we may have in our yard. So we’ve learned to be careful not to leave anything out that can harm wildlife. We try to think of it that this skunk may have passed but he taught us to be careful with what we leave out that animals can get into. So just putting that out there that we as humans can do our best to make sure our spaces don’t negatively effect wildlife.

    Feeling lonely, I got a ferret in early 2005 and a week later my ex-girlfriend, (who owned a raccoon...which was my calling to date her 😆) calls me, and she asks if I still wanted a baby skunk (based on previous conversations). So I drove across the state immediately. I wish digital cameras and smartphones had been more of a thing at that point because I would have documented all of it. I miss you my lil stinker but I'm glad I got to be your papa for so many years. ❤️ Her name was daisy because i thought she smelled so good after being de-scented. I'll never forget that scent.
