Possibly Non-Flying Ninja Racoons. That's my suspicion.

Ninjas don't normally fly. They leap and do acrobatics and they disappear at the drop of a hat, but they don't fly. Well, maybe ghost ninjas could fly.

You never know. It could just be the Great White Shark-Ameoba-Gator.

When Buster is a Ninja, he flies.

You're just jealous because your cat doesn't fly.

Perhaps HTH should leave some grapes on his roof.

Or Ninja Squirrels- we have several, and they are quite loud.

It's not squirrels. When HTH described it as "thundering," he wasn't exaggerating. There's plenty of Ninja Squirrels at my place, though. Want some?

Lol- no way! We've got a bazillion of them here. Hmmm... What about Ninja Possums? Armadillos?

Thanks for the info. When we found that they had been in the attic, we blocked the entrance. We firgured the went in there a night or two after we started leaving the gate open. So, they haven't been living in there. In fact, I don't think they live on our property. There is a fig tree in our neighbor's backyard so that is their food source. So, they must live nearby. I'll check out the website and see what's up. Animal control said to put an ammonia soaked rag by the entrance to the awning and under the eaves, but they just grabbed it and moved it out to the middle of the awning. They're not stupid animals. We thought about putting tack strip across the top of the fence so they will stick their little feet when they try to cross over. People say that because they are so smart that they will figure out a way. We haven't closed the gate to see if they're gone yet, because that one time we do, they will be back!!:mad:

With everybody's help, I think I've got my problem figured out. I bet my house is being haunted by the legendary Flying Ghost Ninja Squirrel-possum-armadillo-shark-Ameoba-Gator-Racoon beast that has never been caught on film, but is know to exist in high mountainess areas.

Count your blessings- here in the PNW, we have to contend with the dreaded Ninja Sasquatch as well.
