I left the door open one night, too. I remembered about 1 in the morning, and went dow to find a raccoon munching on my beloved rooster's head! Massive guilt, but lucky that he didn't do more damage. Got a Pullet-shut door soon after. Best money spent ever! Now I can go to a show for the weekend and not worry. (Also reenforced my run fencing after that attack, as well.)
the guilts the worst but we have to learn from what we did (or didn't do) and do better next time. We odered an automatic door yesterday. We've talked about getting one for awhile and figured nows a good time. I understand things like this can happen but i want to do my best to make sure it doesn't.
I also think it was a fox that got them. I've see them often driving to work in tinton falls but never in point pleasant but it had to be something big.
