Phil Found The Lettuce Garden

Well, the inevitable has happened. The ground hog (affectionately named 'Phil' or if it's a girl, 'Phyllis') living underneath our shed has found the lettuce and helped himself to a tasty bunch of romaine. We're not sure what we're going to do but we do have a very helpful cat who was perched on top of the shed today in lookout position. Phil, though he is a bit larger than my cat, seems a bit skittish and my cat a terrific death stare. Hopefully they can make some arrangements. We're fine with Phil eating the grass weeds, but if he continues to help himself to the lettuce we may have to take more serious measures to control his behavior.
