Not Happy

Apparently I have a raccoon living in my chimney, and I'm not happy.

My new neighbor told me that he's seen it crawling in and out.  I don't  have a fireplace but the chimney was used for the original heating system ventelation.

This has turned into a neighborhood project.  The original plan was to trap the raccoon and relocate her, but it turns out that if I go behind the furnace I can hear babies squeaking.  Mama gets a reprieve until the babies leave.

The Wildlife Guy I called removed Momma and two live baby squirrels and one dead baby out of my chimney. that afternoon I saw the remaining parent sitting on the roof...there's a cap on the top so no one can enter the chimney. He also removed branches and leaves. And poop.
