Skunks are very special animals.
A skunk owner MUST have more patience that you can imagine to live with and deal with these animals on a daily basis. Many, possibly most people don't have what it takes. They can move and get behind nearly any piece of furniture in your home. They will get behind, under, between, through or in anything. They will dump out pocketbooks, book bags, briefcases, drawers, laundry baskets, toy chests, trash cans, potted plants and bookcases just to see what in, behind or underneath them.
