Of course, they also steal catfood and chicken eggs.jerilandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07418564262425621746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3997422903835675090.post-7346961552019956682018-02-03T11:07:34.861-08:002018-02-03T11:07:34.861-08:00Martha, Gustave seems to be a favorite on the wool...Martha, Gustave seems to be a favorite on the wool facebook page too.
