If there foaming at the mouth and acting odd and agressive I think its safe to say there there rabid not posioned, or they all be dead or sick.

I have yet to encounter rabid animals and I'd not whether we have them here in New Zealand, though a rabid skunk would be both dangerous and messy...

True. Still though,I just dislike that word. I suppose it comes from being labeled rabid by MTV. ("Look at all those rabid Claymates!") *cough*

I haven't seen a rabid animal yet though I remember seeing a Beware of Rabies sign once at a beach.

At my home however we do get foxes coming into our garden at night. But I haven't seen one foaming at the mouth yet.

Oh dear, that made me laugh. xD

Rabid animals? Yes. There was a squirrel and their family living under the bath. It scratched my face and we had to put gloves on to get them all out. X_X But that's not rabid. Is it. O.o


Nope. Rabid animals foam at the mouth. Nope. I (thankfully) have never encountered a rabid animal. But the other day my neighbours anklebiter came after me when it escaped their house. I closed my door and I heard a bang shortly afterwards. I'm not even going to say what I think the bang was! XD


I guessing something like what happened to Old Yeller.

There's more than one, there are several that are rabid (as well as a few who aren't but most likely soon will be), and they actually spread to a couple of the crows, we think, because one that was foaming at the mouth flew into my window (Which was closed, thankfully). Although we're not sure whether it was the crows or the skunks first.

Meh. They have to keep us in, because if we get rabies then we can sue the city for five million cajillion dollars. So.


Then it would best for people to keep their cats indoors, so that their cats don't catch rabies by killing and eating the crows and other birds which have rabies.

Rabid Skunks?! I've never even seen a skunk, let alone a rabid animal or any sort. Scotland is almost completely free of both of those, I thank goodness.

Well, if they are only house-cat size then I can get my super-uber brilliant kittys to fight them off......*shifty eyes*...I meaaannnn...*cough*.
Anyway, back to topic
Yeah, those skunks really could have been dangerous. How long have you had to stay inside for?

Mon Aug 23, 2004 11:58 pm

Makes you really wonder. Dogs and cats use to be wild until humans came along.. they use to roam free on the wild woods and forests

Definately stay inside.

Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:47 am

I'd stay inside I mean has anyone read Cujo? Or see the movie?

That's a different kind of rabid. That's 'OMG IM GOIN 2 MARY CLAY AIKEN!!1111' rabid. As in, really obsessed, scary fangirl rabid. It only applies to fangirls/fans who think they're going to marry their lust-object or write fanfiction with canon-bending Mary Sues who end up with that lust-object (i.e. Serena Serenity Starbreeze makes *insert mean/bad/villainous character* become *insert good/great character or the hero*'s best friend, and then goes on to save the world, all the while being better, prettier and more powerful than any other character. Ugh.)... It can be scary. o_x

Hahaha! The word still holds the relation to me.

We have seen these huge, HUGE rats that go insane and run around in our backyards and the neighbourhood. They're cute though.
