I'm going to suspend a basket over the sweater so they get used to sleeping with that overhead, then lower it a little each day.
Of course, you can never judge by a cute appearances alone. Who knows what the heck these things are??
Consider John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
I ask, What "righteous" things have these beings done? Well, so far (and this is just in a week's time) they've trespassed, and ate stolen fruit (off my strawberry bush). They could be dumped here by illegal aliens for all I know, from Marakesh (?) or somewheres exotic. For all I know they're stuffed full of packets of black-tar heroin! (Will check before cooking)
You have to harden your heart to appearances. Walking the straight and narrow isn't easy.

I do believe those are prairie dogs pups! Cute little buggers, but they really will tear up the gardens! My granny gets them all over the place in the summer, and they fry up pretty well, but i'd gut 'em first, as they eat dirt.
though they ones im thinking of look more like these
they could be meerkats though! If they are, I wouldn't touch em, because meerkats are native to Africa and could potentially be bad for one of two things: They could be infected with the AIDS or malaria from being in Africa and being carelessly lost by their transporters, or the transporters could have been scientists who were using them as lab rats.
So really, Sister Cookie, I'd hunker down in the books until i knew for sure what they were.
EDIT: I did not realize that this was such an old post! That crazy pasta weirdo bumped the thread. Sorry Mrs Cookie!!
