I live on a 10 acre farm out it the country. My neighbors are at best 1/4 mile awsy from me. My neighbors horses have gotten out & come grazing in my fields just as my other neighbors (plural) cattle drop by for visits which all require my herding them up & trying to get them back home where they came from. Yes, I know my neighbors thoygh not closly. I am much closer with my neighbors that are several miles away.
I do have my neighborly wildlife that come to visit from my woods. Momma coonie & her one kid that has stayed come for dog food dinner every night because she was unhealthy skinny last spring. Turned out dhe was nursing 5 babies..no wknder why she was so skinny. Yep, they poop on my deck & I clean that up. I have a very shy but sweet possum that cleans up what my coonies dont finish & yes, they all leave their mess on my deck instead of using my woods as tjeir outhouse but hey, I rather enjoy them & have to clean up a little. The only cleanup that is difficult is when my neighborly Pepe Le'Pewwy gets mad at another neighborly visitor & decides to spray & my house ends up getting it.
Honestly I LOVE all my neighbors, furry with 4 legs or people. I will tolerate whatever for the joy of living on my farm.
