I used to have raccoons that would sneak into the garage via the cat door at night to eat any leftovers out of the cat's dish.
When I got wise to that, I made sure no food was out at night. So then they started popping the lid off the five gallon container I kept the food in. I even went so far as to put it upside down, so they couldn't get a claw hold on the lid. No problem! Just push the whole container off the table and have the food splash all over the floor for an all you can eat buffet. [facepalm]
During this little war, I would often turn the light on to chase it (or them) out, and I got Evil Looks that I was disturbing the late night snack time. Reminded me of this picture a few times though.
