Racoon Disaster

We were invaded last night.  Five very hungry racoons showed up and destroyed the bird feeders.  The cats ran off and hid until the hordes had retreated to the forest again.  We have decided to take down the feeders for a while and hopefully they will think thats all there is and stop coming around.  The cats are now going to get their meals inside the garage.  No Food - No Racoons.....I hope!
