Skunk Story

I wish I had a picture of this one, but a words will have to suffice!
We keep several cats down at the barns to keep the mice and rats away. Inside one barn is a bathroom, and we keep the doors open so the cats can come and go and do their jobs. Well the other day, Dale was 'sitting on the pot' when he heard a noise in the cabinet opposite him. When he opened the door to take a look, he found himself nose to nose with a polecat! The skunk prompty turned around and did what they do when they're scared! There wasn't much Dale could do with his britches around his ankles. Luckily his hat got the brunt of it! If that's not funny enough, there's more. The next day Dale and Teryn put out the live trap to catch the skunk, and as Teryn was trying to get the skunk out of the trap, Dale hollered, and the skunk got scared and sprayed Teryn too! It'll be a while before either of them live that one down!
