I pulled motorcycle out of shop to wash it today, and had door open while doing it. The cat came walking up with a ground squirrel in his mouth. He has a habit of bring them into the garage live to kill later, and I did not want one in my shop. He saw me reach for the door button and came running so he could beat the door. I saw he would get inside before the door closed so I jumped in front of him. He dropped the ground squirrel, who woke up, looked around and climbed up into my bike.
The door is now closed, but I have a ground squirrel in my bike with the dog and cat both sitting beside it, so no way the squirrel would come out. The keys were up at the house, so I am wondering if taking it for a ride would scare him out. That idea passed as I had visions of face to face with the squirrel while we were going down the highway.
I decided to start the bike, so did that, he popped up from out around engine, climbed up on gas tank, where I could swat him off. The cat was bored by now because I got involved and the squirrel ran under the stuff along side my shed while dog ran off in other direction thinking that was correct. I decided it was safe now to open door and put bike back inside where there should be no ground squirrels.
I am not happy about having an extra ground squirrel near my shop, but considering the earlier choices, this seemed the best. I thought maybe the cat will catch him anyway. I came out a few minutes later and the dog was puking the squirrel up in the grass. The squirrel is dead, but do not know if dog actually caught him, or if the cat did and the dog stole it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
