Close call. They will eat cat food if you leave it outside. We had outside cats as kids and all sorts of critters came on by. Pretty sure someone in my house got sprayed.
last night I forgot to bring in Butchs bowl. Imagine he left some dry food in the bowl like usual. for a feral he's well fed by me alone and I know others in the neighborhood feed him too.
early evening its the raccoons. sometimes overlaps with the possums. then 2-4 am is a skunk. was surprised to see one at 630 or so in full daylight......
left him/her alone and it exited the yard fairly quickly.

I'm glad you didn't get skunk sprayed, M! The thought is horrifying!
Years ago, I lived in a single-wide mobile home and a skunk sprayed the outside of a wall right where I had my LPs line up in alpha order along the want. Literally for a few years after that the "E"s had a slight skunk smell. Sorry, Brian Eno!
I was surprised to see him/her. This was near an owls nest that had attracted a lot of birders. This was the first time I had a day time sighting. That same morning I had a bald eagle fly about 15 ft over me my head. No time to get out the phone/camera.

While waiting to get my teeth cleaning done at the dentist (and there' nothing I love more than getting my teeth scraped... not!), I spotted these wild turkey chicks that are approaching adolescence wandering around outside the office window. Apparently they live in the bushes on the other side of the building, but venture out into the parking lot now and then.

Saw this green sea turtle tonight down by the harbor. Pretty sure my wife and I saw this guy a year ago. I’m in the same spot and he’s got the same barnacle pattern on his back. He was a super noisy eater! Very slurpy!
On the beach in the dark. Was rubbing the sand down near the water, you can get the bioluminescent plankton to stimulate and spark a green color in the sand.
Saw this weird glowing shape a few feet away. Took the photo and then lit it up. An Atlantic mole crab. He’s actually covered in the glowing plankton!
Very cool. The glowing creatures at night! Even a walk in the dark woods, certain bugs glow when you look in the leaf litter. Also if you dare shine a flashlight. Spider eyes shine like crystals. Everywhere!

Great eye and rare to spot in the day..
That same morning I had a bald eagle fly about 15 ft over me my head. No time to get out the phone/camera.

Nice! Looks like a friendly garter snake.
Hope you enjoyed your time.

Saw this guy on the way to breakfast.
