Night time Intruder

Hello. We woke up last night to what we thought was our cat playing with a piece of paper on the floor or something.

When I finally came downstairs to make him stop, we found an unexpected intruder sitting on our family room cabinet. :-)

He must have made his way down the chimney somehow because he left soot on the walls and the ceilings while trying to find his way back out.

He was beautiful and I'm glad we were able to catch him and release him back outside.

Thank you for your report and the great photo of your surprise visitor! I'm so glad you were able to catch him and release him outside! Well done!
