You like skunked beer, but no longer drink alcohol?

We've got you covered.

Tried our new Skunk Water flavoring. You open the pouch, like so... and your nostrils are immediately traumatized by the unmistakable aroma of skunk. Hmm... skunk! Then you pour our mix into water and mix it thoroughly, and voilà: you've got a beverage so strong that your eye will water as you drink it.

Skål!

I've now seen Dr. Jerry Dragoo acknowledged in two different children's books — involving skunks (of course). I wonder how many he's mentioned in.

The sooner we grow organs on demand in labs the better, what a wild chain of events 😬

Man dies of rabies after kidney transplant from donor who saved kitten from skunk

Michigan man received kidney transplant from donor who had fought off a skunk and was later found unresponsive

Sigh…

I’ve been battling this cute little guy for months. I tried scaring him off with lights, skunk juice…everything humane. But he’s persistent.

He bombs my workspace and already got one of our dogs. Even though I fenced them out.

So we had to dig an underground barrier and put a one-way door at his entrance. Evict him. 🥺

The trail cam caught him trying to get back in. He looks sad. My heart is broken. 😭🦨

A lucky kid takes home a skunk from the Sacramento Animal Lending Library, 1952.

Schoolkids could borrow a variety of animals to take care of for a week at a time; at the risk of a 10¢ fee for overdue critters.

I'm just a skunk in the mud.

HEPA filters help. This is another fabulous reason to keep that Corsi-Rosenthal box you built early on in the pandemic. Or whatever air filters you may have, crank them up. Open up windows if possible (assuming it doesn't stink worse outside), turn on fans.

I'll follow up later with a report about how the deodorizers work (I got some for both dog and carpets).

Water activates the skunk oils, so the dog is going to actually smell worse at first in the bath. I suspect this is why some product reviews for deodorizers have complaints that it made the dog smell worse. It's not the product, it's the water. Bathe them anyway, it has to get worse before it gets better, I guess.
